This was a great collection of Gierach's essays from some of his previous books. As always, they were a very enjoyable read, and not just for the flyfishing material.

3.Standing in a River Waving a StickStanding in a River Waving a Stick
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $12.23

Customer Review:
Well written, some of the same fishing characters as in his other books. Just a sample: He was fishing along the river bottom in a slit canyon. Suddenly he felt as if he were being watched. He looked up along the rim and there were two dogs, no coyotes, sitting and watchng him. He could almost hear... more info

4.The Habit of Rivers: Reflections on Trout Streams and Fly FishingThe Habit of Rivers: Reflections on Trout Streams and Fly Fishing
from The Lyons Press
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
Leeson writes so well and describes his responses to rivers and fishing so clearly that you almost experience the rivers with him. I don't fish but I read it happily and then shared it with my brothers (who do fish).. If you fish, read it; if you don't fish but like Oregon rivers, read it anyway.

Careful with this light-hearted little collection of essays, there is wisdom sprinkled in there and you just might learn something that will improve your fishing.

6.At the Grave of the Unknown FishermanAt the Grave of the Unknown Fisherman
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $11.05

Customer Review:
In years past, I have read several of John Gierach's books. Out of all the fishing books I have read, his thoughts and writing lingered year after year. I picked up his audiobook, At the grave of the Unknown Fisherman, for a 16 hour drive across Wyoming, Utah and Neveda and another 16 hours back... more info

7.Sex, Death and Fly FishingSex, Death and Fly Fishing
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $11.12

Customer Review:
The book is a collection of essays written more about fly-fishing than sex. The writing is crisp and avoids any notion of being "flowery." Gierach is at his best when things go bad - real bad. In the context of fishing that is. The worst fishing conditions bring out his laser-focused wit in Sex,... more info

from Simon & Schuster
Price: $10.29

Customer Review:
We who fish have all heard of these places. The Secrets, the holes where civilisation didn't spoil the fish, and the fish are wild. Or, if originally stocked, been living the free life long enough to be close to wild. Yet again Gierach proves that his writing, although deeply personal, never becomes... more info

10.Dances With TroutDances With Trout
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $11.05

Customer Review:
'Fly fishing is solitary, contemplative, misanthropic, scientific in some hands, poetic in others, and laced with conflicting aesthetic considerations. It's not even clear if catching fish is actually the point' is what the author shares and what I 100% agree with!

Loving Scotland and fly fishing... more info
