More About This Book

Overview

Belongs on every angler’s bookshelf —no philosophy or mid-life crises— just seriously amusing tales of good times at the river’s edge.

Here’s a book that embraces yet transcends the fly-fisher’s world much as Bryson’s A Walk in the Woods transcends the hiker’s world. It is a journey to remote Labrador, to Alaska, Scotland, Ireland, the Florida Keys, to a Pepsi shack on the Catawba in the Carolinas, to a tackle shop no bigger than a rooster’s nest on 42nd Street, to Kettle Creek in Pennsylvania’s Forbidden Lands. It is suffused with the fragrance of Montecristos, the plumy sweetness of vintage Port, the sizzle of sirloins on a Coleman stove. Plus such unforgettable characters as Mr. Earp, a 100 percent West Virginian and 50 percent Cherokee; and Mr. Cotter, the quintessential NY cop turned fly-fishing gentleman.

What People Are Saying

    A reviewer

    Most of my reading is done in airports, planes and hotel rooms. So I buy books with short chapters. Quigley¿s collection of 25 fly fishing stories makes the cut. These stories are fast-paced and amusing and the characters are unforgettable. ¿Painted Ladies¿ recounts a Newtonian moment at the bar in NYC¿s Waldorf-Astoria ¿amid a hatch of Dollimentia sophisticata¿ that leads to a fly fishing theory of attraction. ¿Angling Attire¿ reveals how Orvis outfits raise everyone¿s expectations. ¿Catch & Release¿ catches Lee Wulff with a trout on the grill and another on the wall. In ¿The Legend,¿ which first appeared in the Yale Anglers¿ Journal, a fisherman achieves dubious fame on the flats in the Bahamas. Quigley¿s other stories take you to the Outer Banks in search of albies, to Labrador for giant brookies, to Florida for tarpon, to Walker¿s Cay, Ireland, Scotland, Alaska, the Carolinas, Pennsylvania. I recommend Quigley¿s book to all fellow travelers and sporting gentlemen who enjoy their fly fishing adventures short, sweet and seasoned with good writing and more than a pinch of wit. It makes a great gift for the fisherman in your life.
