Download or read book Fishing Stories written by Nick Lyons and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-11-18 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All fishermen who have fished for a lifetime have baskets of great stories and reminiscences about the sport they love. Nick Lyons’s new collection is chock-full of them. From fishing a small Catskill creek and catching a huge brook trout when he was barely out of infancy to long opening day treks during his teens, and then on to fishing in France, Iceland, Key West, Montana, and widely elsewhere, Nick has spent a lifetime on the water. Fishing Stories features tales about bass, bluefish, tarpon, stripers, bluegill, and many other species as well as portraits of many of the unusual people with whom he has fished. Lyons describes a long, hilarious day with a character named Hawkes in one story, and then the next features a father and son on a Western lake. Through these memories, Lyons shows the comfortable pleasure of fishing waters close to home that one knows just about as well as his or her closest friends. Stories describe days of discovery and adventure on new waters; fishing with famous fishing writers, and new friends, and a granddaughter; and fishing in a little pond he built during the years he refers to as his Indian summer. An unforgettable fight with a gigantic fish in a Western river and simpler days fishing for bluegill and pickerel are also documented. No fisherman of any stripe will fail to find stories that echo his or her own experiences, and all will come closer to understanding the passion that drives all serious fishermen.

Download or read book Memories Made and Lessons Learned written by David Van Lear and published by . This book was released on 2011-12-08 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Van Lear first experienced fishing with his father, on the beautiful Cowpasture River, and these memorable outings began a lifelong fascination a way of life aligned with the rhythms of rivers and streams, and an outlook sensitive to the wonders of Americas wilderness. From his local river to Yellowstone Park to Canada and many points in between, David embraced the fishing lifestyle and all it had to offer. With adventures ranging from the hilarious to the hair-raising, David shares his decades of uncomfortable camping, unexpected bear encounters, risking life and limb in unsafe terrain, and the frustration of fish that refuse to be caught. But the heart of this book is the deep, life-enriching experience that fishing especially fly fishing brings: the luminous solitude of the wilderness; the appreciation of ecosystems and how humans contribute to their preservation or downfall; the excitement of mastering new waters; the reminders that persistence, patience, and ingenuity restore and redefine themselves with every new opportunity. Appealing to a wide variety of readers, Davids friendly voice and unique perspective, balancing wisdom and humor, will keep you engaged even after you have turned the final page.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Angler's Reminiscences: A Record of Sport, Travel, and Adventure Charles Hallock's literary career, covering a period of sixty years - beginning with the editorship of a college paper, "The Scorpion," at Amherst, in 1852 - has been remarkable for wide range, and thorough mastery of each subject. Although angling has always been his favorite recreation his active participation in other manly outdoor sports is indicated by the title, "Dean of American Sportsmen," conferred by prominent brothers of the guild in recognition of his ability as a practical exponent of healthful pastimes, and as an author - an acknowledged authority - in this branch of literature. Turning to the brief autobiography in this volume - a classic in its special line - the reader will find some of the salient features of a life work great in achievement, varied in scope - from scientific research to current comment on the topics of the day; from sojourning in the Sunny South to pioneer jaunts in the wild West and to far-off Alaska - yet interspersed always with pursuit of the pastimes he loved, with rod and gun. His recreations - like those of "Christopher North" - furnished material for delightful sketches, standard works, scientific essays. His companions were men of action - the hardy voyageurs, at home in primitive craft on wild waters, or on foot along wild trails; ardent anglers seeking adventurous sport on salmon rivers and trout streams far from routes of ordinary tourists; scholars and scientists delving deep in the study of animated nature. That Charles Hallock is and has long been a recognized force, an accepted authority in matters pertaining to fish and fishing, science and travel, is evidenced by the fact that he is an active or honorary member of no less than fifty-seven clubs and associations, many of these being organizations of national and some of international scope. His copyrighted books are seventeen in number, and his various articles in the magazines, sportsmen's journals and daily press would, if collected in library form, fill fifty volumes of absorbing interest. The condensed summary, given elsewhere in this work, records the remarkable fact that outside of newspaper work his occupations and important experiments reached a total of sixty-seven, while his hairbreadth escapes numbered twenty-eight. As an editor, particularly in his favorite field, he possessed the qualifications to acquire the full measure of success. His literary style was here shown in its versatile character, its vigor, and perfect command of the English language. A valuable adjunct was his world-wide acquaintance with men of mark in sportsmanship and the world of letters.
