Fly-Fishing for Sharks
Author: Richard Louv
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 0743225759
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 498
Book Description
For three years, journalist Richard Louv listened to America by going fishing with Americans. Doing what many of us dream of, he traveled from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from trout waters east and west to bass waters north and south. Fly-Fishing for Sharks is the result of his journey, a portrait of America on the water, fishing rod in hand. To explore the cultures of fishing, Louv joined a bass tournament on Lake Erie and got a casting lesson from fly-fishing legend Joan Wulff He angled with corporate executives in Montana and fly-fished for sharks in California. He spent time with fishing-boat captains in Florida, the regulars who fish New York City's Hudson River, and a river witch in Colorado. He teamed secrets of fishing and living from steelheaders in the Northwest, Bass'n Gals in Texas, and an ice-fisher in the North Woods. Along the way, he heard from one of Hemingway's sons what it was like to fish with Papa and from Robert Kennedy, Jr., how fishing changed his fife. As he describes the eccentricities, obsessions, and tribulations of dedicated anglers, he also uncovers the values that unite them. He reveals the healing qualities of fishing, how it binds the generations, how the angling business has grown, and how the future of fishing is threatened. But most of all, Fly-Fishing for Sharks is about the unforgettable characters Louv meets on the water and the stories they tell. From them, Louv learns about our changing relationship with nature, about a hidden America -- and about himself.

Book Description
REVIEWERS ARE SAYING: "Think 'The Hangover' mixed with 'Old School' and drenched in wing sauce. Ride shotgun with a group of friends trying to get to a Buffalo Bills game and join in all the crazy shenanigans along the way!" "Laugh-out-loud funny and outrageously clever! Tucker Max type of escapades wrapped up in a plot with more twists-and-turns than a pole dancer." "[Fellow] ladies, this is a must-read if you want a glimpse inside the minds of men. Enlightening, jaw-dropping, and hilarious!" "Holy mother is it funny... but it's not without a lot of heart; the type of heart you can only find in places like Buffalo, NY... in the dead of winter... after four Super Bowl losses in a row." OVERVIEW: Robert's "summer romance" with Jennifer was interrupted when his college buddy, Zabka, returned to Buffalo for a visit. The police report described their reunion antics as, "two knuckleheads on a beyond insane bender." Since then, Jennifer's leash around Robert's neck kept getting shorter and shorter. Now it's mid-December, and Zabka is planning an even bigger road trip back to frigid Buffalo. He envisions a weekend overflowing with beer and girls that, in his words, "climaxes" with the Bills squishing the Dolphins to clinch the division's playoff spot. However, if Jennifer discovers his plans, there's no telling what she'll do. Will drunken chaos spin out of control again? What unexpected trouble is flying up from Miami? When relationships, friendships, and rivalries collide, can anything survive? And where did the midget strippers come from?! Nothing can prepare this incompatible cast of characters for this wild winter weekend.
