Synopsis
Recounting pilgrimages near and far - to the Delaware, the Beaverkill, the Schoharie, the Madison, and the Big Hole - Nick Lyons explores a passion for angling that draws him ever closer to the seamless web of life in rivers. He is a city-dweller and never forgets that cities are part of the complex and inexorable reality of modern life; but he is also, in Ed Zern's phrase, that happy and compulsive combination of angler-poet-romantic, and rivers not only touch his heart and imagination but provide a vital link to the natural world. Bright Rivers chronicles the author's passion. He tells of experiences shared with angling friends - some moving, some hilarious - and shares reminiscences of big trout taken, released, or, sometimes, lost: for Lyons is an admitted master of frustration and may well have written more about not catching fish than anyone else.
