Riassunto

Here is longtime fly-fishing writer William G. Tapply on the large and small pleasures of fishing, from fly tying to hunting the big ones. In "Extreme Angling," Tapply dismisses the idea of fly fishing as "the quiet sport," with tales of grizzly attacks, rogue logs, and big water. In "Hexed," he finds out that his local stream - overstocked and overfished - offers a lot more than he ever suspected. In "Paying Homage," he describes the mystical joys of the Beaverkill in upstate New York. In "Seven for the Road," he gives readers a peek at some of the most important things he stows in his tackle bag, including the books he carries on every trip.

Included here are also Tapply’s ruminations on:
? Coming Unstuck
? Playing Guns
? Bank Shots
? Twiggling
? Bass Bugging for Trout
? Zen and the Art of Jiggering
? Eastern Steelhead
? The Fish of 1,000 Casts
? Selective Perch
? The Upside-Down Dun
? Flymphs Reconsidered
? Tap’s Bug
? and many more 

Gone Fishin' is an inspiring collection, from a fisherman whose writing is well known and even more respected.
