Book excerpt: “Beautiful. ... A lyrical companion to his father’s classic, A River Runs through It, chronicling their family’s history and bond with Montana’s Blackfoot River.” —Washington Post A "poetic" and "captivating" (Publishers Weekly) memoir about the power of place to shape generations, Home Waters is John N. Maclean's remarkable chronicle of his family's century-long love affair with Montana's majestic Blackfoot River, the setting for his father's classic novella, A River Runs through It. Maclean returns annually to the simple family cabin that his grandfather built by hand, still in search of the trout of a lifetime. When he hooks it at last, decades of longing promise to be fulfilled, inspiring John, reporter and author, to finally write the story he was born to tell. A book that will resonate with everyone who feels deeply rooted to a landscape, Home Waters is a portrait of a family who claimed a river, from one generation to the next, of how this family came of age in the 20th century and later as they scattered across the country, faced tragedy and success, yet were always drawn back to the waters that bound them together. Here are the true stories behind the beloved characters fictionalized in A River Runs through It, including the Reverend Maclean, the patriarch who introduced the family to fishing; Norman, who balanced a life divided between literature and the tug of the rugged West; and tragic yet luminous Paul (played by Brad Pitt in Robert Redford’s film adaptation), whose mysterious death has haunted the family and led John to investigate his uncle’s murder and reveal new details in these pages. A universal story about nature, family, and the art of fly fishing, Maclean’s memoir beautifully captures the inextricable ways our personal histories are linked to the places we come from—our home waters. Featuring twelve wood engravings by Wesley W. Bates and a map of the Blackfoot River region.

Download or read book America's Favorite Flies written by Rob Carter and published by . This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's Favorite Flies: 9 x 12 inches, 656 pages, full-color, case bound with cloth, smyth sewn. America's Favorite Flies, a book by Rob Carter and John Bryan, is a landmark gathering of 224 persons from across North America, each of whom has provided a favorite fly along with comments and materials. Among the book's contents are stunning photographs of the flies and writings by the participants. The list of participants is compelling: President Jimmy Carter, Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard, fly-fishing matriarch Joan Wulff, salt fly legend Lefty Kreh, 1% for the Planet co-founder Craig Mathews, Riverkeeper founder Robert Boyle, rock musician Huey Lewis, artist James Prosek, author Tom McGuane, and on and on. America's Favorite Flies is dedicated to Norman Maclean, author of A River Runs through It, which spawned the movie that has had arguably more impact on fly-fishing than anything in its history. Norman Maclean's children, Jean Snyder Maclean and John N. Maclean, have given their appreciation and enthusiastic confirmation for this dedication. The book also includes approximately 100 artworks by some of North America's most beloved outdoor artists. 14 influential people in the world of fly fishing have contributed special essays. All of the profits from America's Favorite Flies are donated to two organizations whose work benefits ever healthier fisheries and waters. The James River Association is guardian of the 348-mile James River that begins with mountain trout waters and concludes amid bluefish and flounder waters where the Chesapeake Bay meets the Atlantic Ocean. The Native Fish Society plays a vital role in the conservation and recovery of wild, native fish in the Pacific Northwest, and is an active advocate both regionally and nationally.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to Gain a Positively Unfair Advantage on the River - Even if You're Unsure what the MANY Variations of "Euro Nymphing" Actually Involve... INCLUDING Over 2 hours of supporting video material (designed to be worth the price of the book on its own) Hands up who knows what Euro nymphing is? It's incredibly popular and causes many online arguments - yet most anglers show CLEAR GAPS in their skills and knowledge. So if you want to go beyond bobbers and split shot, you'll need to dodge an overwhelming tide of BS online covering "Tight Line Nymphing" and European competition methods. While there are good books available, certain tactics are left out (keeping a number of methods known only to a handful of top anglers) and it is difficult to build a strategy for choosing and using each of the different rigs, methods and flies. The aim of this book is to arm you with the most complete range of tactics possible and give you the confidence to tackle new waters and different conditions. It does this by clearly explaining WHY to choose - as well as HOW to use - each rig & technique. The methods include: Czech nymphing (both the little-known LONG-line variant & the famous SHORT-line tactics) Polish nymphing Ladder Leader Nymphing (so you can quickly alter the spacing between your droppers, which means you're more likely to actually benefit from those "fine-tuning" tweaks) Classic French Nymphing The family of modern "Nymphe au Fil", Pêche a la Sempé and Spanish Nymphing French Leader with Dry Fly French Leader with Streamer Duo and Trio (Euro-style Hopper/Dropper with "everything off the water" up to the dry) Slovakian nymphing ...and even a little "suspension" nymphing so that the typical "Tight-line Euro tactics" don't have it all their own way All this is underpinned by the understanding of a freshwater biologist (and nymph fishing addict) which reveals important secrets of predators and prey behaviour in our rivers - and how to hotwire that system with our artificial flies. Stories from around the world bring the tactics to life - as well as making the take-home messages much more memorable (so you'll actually use them in your own fishing) PLUS: Full color photos of actual flies gifted during major international competition events which let you peek inside boxes of multiple World Championship competitors (including captains and coaches) Multiple Detailed Spotlight Features on: Sighters/indicators ★ Reading the Water ★ Stealth ★ Casting ★ Feeding Biology of Fish ★ Trade Secret Leader Recipes and Chemical Treatments★ A Simplified Set of Fly Patterns ★ Magic Bullet Method (Selecting Rigs, Flies & Fishing Locations) Method in my Madness Carefully layering the information means that there are "quick win" tips you can use right away - while bigger ideas build up and become absorbed naturally over the course of the book. I believe this gives you the best chance of greatly improving your ability to catch fish, to adapt to situations - and perhaps "re-boot" your love of fly fishing in the process! Who SHOULDN'T buy this? This is a practical, paperback manual - not an ornament. Don't buy this book if informal, conversational language or Sans Serif font aren't your things.

Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller Winner of the Women's Prize for Fiction World Fantasy Awards Finalist From the New York Times bestselling author of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, an intoxicating, hypnotic new novel set in a dreamlike alternative reality. Piranesi's house is no ordinary building: its rooms are infinite, its corridors endless, its walls are lined with thousands upon thousands of statues, each one different from all the others. Within the labyrinth of halls an ocean is imprisoned; waves thunder up staircases, rooms are flooded in an instant. But Piranesi is not afraid; he understands the tides as he understands the pattern of the labyrinth itself. He lives to explore the house. There is one other person in the house-a man called The Other, who visits Piranesi twice a week and asks for help with research into A Great and Secret Knowledge. But as Piranesi explores, evidence emerges of another person, and a terrible truth begins to unravel, revealing a world beyond the one Piranesi has always known. For readers of Neil Gaiman's The Ocean at the End of the Lane and fans of Madeline Miller's Circe, Piranesi introduces an astonishing new world, an infinite labyrinth, full of startling images and surreal beauty, haunted by the tides and the clouds.

Book excerpt: At times we take it for granted, it's just an extension of our arm, but how much do you know about the development of your fly rod? Don Phillips gives the reader a perspective of how fly-rod technology has evolved since the earliest Chinese and Egyptian fishermen fed their families more than 2000 years before the birth of Christ. In this book, Don shares: the history, including the very first rods; fly-rod design over the years; the use of cane, metal, fiberglass, and boron and graphite; the properties of these materials; manufacturing processes for these materials; component design; patent activities over the years; casting; taper and cross-sectional geometry; and much, much more. You'll find this very detailed book hard to put down.

He is a legendary Wall Street tycoon; she is the daughter of eccentric aristocrats. Together, they have risen to the very top of a world of seemingly endless wealth--all as a decade of excess and speculation draws to an end. But at what cost have they acquired their immense fortune? This is the mystery at the center of Bonds, a successful 1937 novel that all of New York seems to have read. Yet there are other versions of this tale of privilege and deceit. Hernan Diaz's TRUST elegantly puts these competing narratives into conversation with one another--and in tension with the perspective of one woman bent on disentangling fact from fiction. The result is a novel that spans over a century and becomes more exhilarating with each new revelation. At once an immersive story and a brilliant literary puzzle, TRUST engages the reader in a quest for the truth while confronting the deceptions that often live at the heart of personal relationships, the reality-warping force of capital, and the ease with which power can manipulate facts.

Download or read book The Angler as Predator written by Gary A. Borger and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As successful fly fishers, we need to play the role of the predator, paying close attention to clothing, approach angle, walking and wading, the tactics of casting and line handling, the skills of setting the hook and fighting the fish, and more. For the fly fisher, knowledge translates to greater success. In this book you will find a broad-spectrum analysis of the various aspects of "predatory" angling. Understanding how the fish perceives its environment--and ours--as well as how we view the fish's home, forms the basis for further detailed discussions of approach, fly choice, casting and more. You'll also find an exploration of key predatory skills such as setting the hook and fighting and landing fish. And, of course, there are stories that bring personalized illumination to the process of fishing like a predator."--BookMasters website.
