"Battle of the Bards"


DAVE KARCZINSKI, who teaches writing at the University of Michigan, took it upon himself a couple of years ago to compare the angling writing of Jim Harrison and Thomas McGuane. As he noted, "Two things Michiganders don’t have to look far beyond their borders for are good beer and good writers (and may they remain forever twained)." Read his entertaining take on how the two different writers have approached fishing prose in "Battle of the Bards: Harrison and McGuane."

As Tim Flagler says of the pattern featured in this week's featured tying video, "Sometimes, simpler is better." The Winter Wonder is "a way simplified version of a steelhead nymph I’ve been tying and fishing for years. In this form, it’s easier to tie, sinks much faster and tends to be more durable, yet is no less effective."

"THE GIFT OF WORDS"

"My home is a 15-minute walk from Portland, Oregon’s world-famous Powell’s City of Books. This amazing store stocks millions of new and used books, fills up several stories on a whole city block, and is THE place to fish for fly-fishing books— any books — in Oregon." Read on...

IS THERE A "CORRECT" CASTING STYLE?

Question: "I have a fly-fishing buddy who is a real know-it-all. (Imagine that!) And he claims that I don’t cast “correctly.” We’ve had some head-to-head contests, and he can cast maybe 5 feet farther than I can with a 5 weight. It seems like I catch just as many fish as he does, though. Could I really be doing it wrong?" Read the answer...
