The Northern California Fly Fishing Board

Thirty years ago I read all things Nick Lyons. Five years ago I started reading John Gierach and have loved every word. I'm now half way through Thomas McGuane's The Longest Silence. I'm not sure why I've never read his works before. Lyons and Gierach set a pretty high bar. McGuane's style is somewhat different than Lyons and Gierach, but close enough that if you enjoy them you will love him. Assuming I'm not the last one to know about McGuane, summer's coming to its end. Time get get reading. Mike
