Opening Sentence of the Day: Angler Management
"After I finished An Inconvenient Trout, which I recommend highly for its technical information and helpful how-to hints, such as not drowning, I decided almost immediately that I had more to say about fly fishing."
-- From the Introduction
"If I really want to get rid of someone, I bring up fly fishing in conversation."
-- From Chapter One, "The Conversation."
Angler Management: The Day I Died While Fly Fishing and Other Essays by Jack Ohman.
This is a book I have been meaning to read for a while -- almost as long as my husband has been talking about cleaning up his fishing gear and going fly fishing again. At least one of us will accomplish our goal this summer.
NOTE
Book Beginnings on Fridays is a Friday "opening sentence" event hosted by Becky at Page Turners.
