While I spend a lot of my time outdoors, there are times when its not comfortable to do so. Thats when a good book will fill in some time.
These are two of my favorites. They are well written, with lots of facts, and beautiful photos and paintings. They are not part of the throngs of "How To" books but they are of real life stories that show us how wonderful fly fishing is.
With the Holidays coming soon perhaps you should consider putting one of these fine books on your list.
Would make for fine reading during the cold winter months.
ReplyDeleteJust finished reading Voelker's pond and just a hour ago received my long awaited copy of Anatomy of a Fisherman by Robert Traver. I know what I will be doing tonight.:-)
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of Prosek's writing and painting. I think I have everything he's done.
ReplyDeleteNot familiar with Voelker's Pond (Familiar wit hVoelker / Traverse, but not the book you highlighted)
Yay!! New book to read over the Winter!
troutrageous1, Books to enjoy for sure.
ReplyDeleteMorne, Another good one.
Wolfy, I too enjoy Prosek's works. Voelker's Pond is something you'll enjoy.
Prosek has a very interesting project (video and book) "The Complete Angler: A Connecticut Yankee Follows in the Footsteps of Walton". Really good.. Youtube has some video.
ReplyDeletepenbayman,
ReplyDeleteLooks like it would be a good read. I'll have to check into it.
