Northwest Fly-Fishing: A Fly-Angler's Lifetime Journey Through Oregon,
Washington, and the World
by Blaine Hallock
Paperback from Frank Amato Publications
ISBN: 157188386X
Blaine Hallock (1889-1953) was born in Heppner, eastern Oregon and
practiced law for many years in Baker City, eastern Oregon, and elsewhere.
He was enamored of fishing, and especially fly-fishing and spent many days
streamside with other Northwest fly-fishing pioneers, such as Spencer Biddle
and Supreme Court Justice William Douglas. Parts of this book were originally
written almost one hundred years ago. This historic book speaks of Northwest
and international angling in locations that today are world famous (and
unfortunately often crowded). Mr. Hallock had a desire to explore and a
wonderful talent for angling and writing.
This book is an exciting discovery of many of the roots of our sport...how
one intelligent Oregonian experienced the first half of the last century. |

Pacific
Troller: Life on the Northwest Fishing Grounds
by Francis E. Caldwell
Paperback from Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1552122832
For four decades writer-photographer Francis (Frank) Caldwell has fished
the Pacific Coast from Alaska to California. In this always readable book
unfolds a clear, close-up view of the fisherman's day-to-day life. The
author shares the excitement of a school of fish biting furiously at dusk,
the frustrations and humor of the radiotelephone, the many characters he
has known, the close shaves, the storms, the too-frequent tragedies of
friends lost at sea, the frightening experience of seeing a UFO off the
Oregon Coast one spooky night. Included is a vivid description of the terrible
giant wave that occurred in Lituya Bay, Alaska, in 1958. |
