520 |a "A collection of fishing stories that connect us to life's deeper questions. Roger W. Thompson shares stories from his life fishing on many of the country's most popular rivers, exploring larger themes of friendship, fatherhood, love, and life. Thompson cast his first line when he was a child, as a way to connect with his own troubled father. In the decades since, he's returned to tying and tossing flies in order to grieve loss, build friendships, and eventually, to connect with his own children. His stories range from the Eastern Sierra Nevada mountains to classic New England streams, and describe the thrill and artistry of fly fishing, as well as the ways that fishing helps to build authentic human connections"-- Provided by publisher.
