Small Streams and Daydreams

Viac o knihe

Through a blend of humor and self-deprecation, the essays explore Paul Phillips' 30 years of fly-fishing across the U.S. and Canada. He candidly shares his misadventures on the stream, from getting lost to tangling lines, showcasing the reality of the sport rather than an idealized vision. Phillips, a self-taught fly-fishing contrarian, critiques the elitism often found in fishing literature while celebrating his love for nature and the joy of the pastime. His reflections balance philosophical musings with light-hearted jabs at himself and others in the fishing community.
