Ramblings of a Charmed Circle Flyfisher

"Ramblings of a Charmed Circle Flyfisher" by Ed Ostapczuk, (Don't ask me to pronounce that.) Published in 2013 by The Hearst Corp. For those of you who reside in the N.J. N.Y. area this one is for you. I was born and grew up and worked through my adult carrier in this area and this book brought back many memories of having cut my teeth in the trout fishing and flyfishing world there. Often throughout the book I saw myself in the same places and growing with the same addiction towards this game. It's as if I was reliving my own self in many of the threads the author lays down here. Any of you living in that area and are addicted to fly fishing for trout need to plow through this one. IMHO.

P.S. Would I ever consider moving back to the N.J. N.Y. area? Emphatically NO! :) But the book is worth the price of admission.

Books and worthy magazines present us with tastes of places which we will never visit. How delightful that is.

Ed has another book titled THE WANDERINGS OF A MOUNTAIN FLYFISHER.
I have enjoyed them both.
