Blue Lines: A fishing life

A young boy learns the ropes of fishing for small trout under the patient gaze of his father. A teenager far from home working on a western Colorado cattle ranch finds connection with a bully in their mutual passion for fishing. A quiet day in September in the wilds of Wyoming is a very different kind of 9/11 for a young couple. Three people adventure into America’s first wilderness area, the Gila Mountains of New Mexico, to catch one of the world’s rarest trout. A father finds healing and solace from a world-wide pandemic in reflections of his family and fishing trips with his son. These are some of the stories in Blue Lines, A Fishing Life , a collection of essays by the widely recognized nature writer, Thomas Reed. The book follows the author’s life through fishing small streams of the American West, with fishing as a place to find common ground, adventure and peace in a troubled world. — ASIN: 1733342222 | ISBN13: 9781733342223 | ISBN-13: 978-1733342223
