Book Overview

Many of these writers came to fly fishing in order to defy, or to wow, or to woo a man. But once the River speaks, the man becomes a superfluous distraction and a woman finds herself standing alone, in living water, defying and wowing the self. This is the moment the fly fisher is born. This beautiful birth is the heartbeat of these stories. -David James Duncan, author of The River Why and The Brothers K Includes stories by Pulitzer-Prize-winner E...

From many diffent angles

The selection of material for this book is varied like the women with whom I fly fish. Many different backgrounds, perspectives and opinions. It was a joy to read about them all. I hope that Holly Morris decides to put together another book like this one.

A Funny and Delightful Book of fly-fishing adventures

I loved this book. I fished as a young girl and have been inspired to try my talents once again after reading this book of short stories. I found the stories to be humorous, and overall a great summer read!

Beautifully written; humor, romance, and why we fish.

This book is not just about fly-fishing, nor is it just about women who fly-fish. The authors and editors have put together a wonderful blend of humor, romance, nostalgia, and the reasons we all fly-fish, male or female. The stories describe the intimidation factor of entering a male dominated sport, why they chose to do so, and what they have learned about life from the experience. It chronicles the journey through life with fly-fishing and describes entry later in life to become closer to a man, or other reasons. Reguardless of how long you have been fly-fishing or how experienced you are, this book will expand your horizons and give you a new look at our favorite sport. This is a worthwhile book for any fly-fisher and no library is complete without it.
