This is John Gierach's latest, eagerly anticipated book - his first new book for three years - and about time too! "The idea is to fish obscure headwater creeks in hopes of eventually sniffing out an underappreciated little trout creek down an unmarked dirt road. ...I suppose it's partly for the fishing itself and partly to satisfy your curiosity, but mostly to sustain the belief that such things are still out there for those willing to look." Gierach takes us "from the Smokies in Tennessee to his home waters in Colorado, from the Canada Maritimes to Mexico - saltwater and fresh." Chapters include; Third-Rate Trout Streams; Skagit; Home Water; Hex; The Perfect Host; Baja; Tennessee; Book Tour; Deckers; A Small River; Atlantic Salmon; Road Trip; Cheating; Firewood; The Other Half; A Good Year; Food; Blue-Winged Olives; Conejos; Three Rivers.
