Danny and the Boys by Robert Traver for me and it will finish it for the untold time, still brings plenty to chuckle over though.

I just finished reading the Traver Award selections in FR&R and one of the submissions involved bamboo. For some strange reason, they didn't seem to
be so dark and morose this year. It has always amazed me that the yearly Traver Award selections are so unlike Traver - apparently you can no longer write a
fishing story with characters who don't have a lot of deep dark personal problems.

Adventures of a Deep Sea Angler, by Romer Gray
Not quite the writer his brother was, Romer nevertheless paints a pretty dam' good image of what really were adventures. Adding to the whole experience for me is the fact that Cathie and I have some of the original photos, not just copies, used in several of Zane's books. Tales of Southern Rivers is next. |

Been taking turns reading these three:
On The Road, by Jack Kerouac ~ a historical and socially significant read about a dark, restless post-WW2 sort whose wanderings become a prelude to 1960's counter-culture movement Native Trout of Western North America, by Robert Behnke ~ if you live west of the Mississippi and are a troutophile, this book belongs in your library. Blue Highways, By William Moon ~ a fascinating and well-written tale about a guy, his dog and their journey through backwoods America. |

On a bit of a Dan Brown kick as i finished the Da Vinci Code while at sea chasin bluefin tuna then immediately started Angels and Demons which i am about a 1/4 of the way through. As for angling i am in the middle of Earl Hodgsons "Salmon Fishing" and Chaytors "Letters to a Salmon Fishermans sons". Both are terrific!!! Hardy Guy
