<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><i>Trout Bum</i> is a fresh, contemporary look at fly fishing, and the way of life that grows out of a passion for it. The people, the places, and the accoutrements that surround the sport make a fishing trip more than a set of tactics and techniques. John Gierach, a serious fisherman with a wry sense of humor, show us just how much more with his fishing stories and a unique look at the fly-fishing lifestyle.<br> <i>Trout Bum</i> is really about why people fish as much as it is about how they fish, and it is ultimately about enduring values and about living in a harmony with our environment. Few books have had the impact on an entire generation that <i>Trout Bum</i> has had on the fly-fishing world. The wit, warmth, and the easy familiarity that John Gierach brings to us in <i>Trout Bum</i> is as fresh and engaging now was when it was first published twenty-five years ago. There's no telling how many anglers have quit their jobs and headed west after reading the first edition of this classic collection of fly-fishing essays.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><p><i>Trout Bum</i> is a fresh, contemporary look at fly fishing, and the way of life that grows out of a passion for it. </b></p><p>The people, the places, and the accoutrements that surround the sport make a fishing trip more than a set of tactics and techniques.
