A great fishing writer -- especially one that travels -- brings the reader along for the ride. That's what Dave Karczynski has always done. You'll enjoy this one not only for his considerations of the hex hatch, but also to Patagonia, and many other far-flung places that we might dream of before bed.
"...Calling After Water is more than just a travelogue or memoir. It’s also a book-long effort to plumb fishing’s deepest experiences, and in doing so to probe its many questions. What is the line that separates sanity from madness when it comes to winter steelheading? How does time behave differently for an angler tied tight to a raging muskie? And how would one go about quantifying, with the utmost philosophical rigor, the joy of catching smallmouth in the springtime? With prose that alternately flashes like the sides of a leaping salmon and glitters like riffle water on a summer morning, Calling After Water is one of those rare books that delights its readers as much as it invites them to reflect on their own love of fly fishing."
