Soon the fall will give way to the winter in the Northeast. Any
suggestions for good enjoyable 'non technical' books to pass the time?
I just picked up Ray Bergman's Trout and I love it. Although there are
technical aspects to the book, I just really enjoy the guy's writing
style. Any other recommendations?


Oh Lordie,,,,any number of suggestions this should get you into the New
Year

3. Early Love and Brook Trout - Prosek
4. Fishermans Spring/Summer/Fall/Winter - Haig Brown
5. Winding Ridge Trilogy - Volk

I especially like the passage, "The husky colonel stalked her
unmercifully, her
silky skin popping with anticipation, as she rowed through water thick as
cream."

hilarious; and sweet to the ear...

Cornography degrades everyone!

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

That's corny.

Absolute mealy-mouthed nonsense, without a germ of fact to back it up.
The gritty truth is there were cereal killers long before anyone ever
published a picture of a naked stamen. People have never been able to
live in hominy, and they never will.....bad seed and all that.....ever
since cane.

Leaf it alone. It's a flakey topic to begin with. You're likely to get
sorghums talking about it. Such goings on have been known to take the
starch out of men. Someone could tassle your hair and get no response.

Get yourself onto groups.google.com and search for Wolfgang's annotated
bibliography that he posted in several parts, what, about a year or so ago.
Oh never mind, I'll do it for you:

That's part one, I'll leave it to the reader to find the other parts.

And since no one else has mentioned Robert Traver, I'll put in a vote for
Trout Madness. Excellent fire side reading.

I like Michael Checcio's writing too. I'm halfway through his recent Being
Nothingness and Fly Fishing. In chapter four he waxes rhapsodic about
Stanley, Idaho of all places...

There was a physicist here at Penn State by that name. Same one?

Thanks. vince
