FEATURED TITLE

The Flies Are Too Damn Small: Adventures of a Deeply Flawed Angler. McFarland, softcover (2024) ISBN: 9781476695860 https://mcfarlandbooks.com/product/the-flies-are-too-damn-small/

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Peter Cammann has written about fishing for more than 30 years. In that time, he has explored at length the lasting questions of fishing, chief among them, why anyone would spend their time doing it. This book presents the odd tales, confessions and musings of a deeply flawed angler, well-acquainted with the limits of his own abilities. These humorous tales are presented by the author as a kind of answer to why so many people spend hours in the water, facing off with fish, sometimes only to release them right away. Occasionally profound and always funny, Cammann’s unique perspective on the sport will delight even those who have never cast a line.
