Notes

Description
In this collection of essays, Gierach "reflects on what casting a line, waiting for bites beside a stream, or searching for good fishing spots can reveal about human nature. Pondering the power of place, he reflects on the pleasures of fishing close to home, where 'some of the things you know operate beneath the level of full consciousness.' While sharing an amusingly self-deprecating story of almost landing a muskie, Gierach observes that the one that got away is the 'stuff of sleeplessly staring at a dark bedroom ceiling' while wondering why one didn't stay home'"--Publishers Weekly, 12/09/2019.
