All Fishermen Are Liars (Audiobook)

For John Gierach, �the master of fly-fishing� (Sacramento Bee), fishing is always the answer-even when it's not clear what the question is. In All Fishermen Are Liars, Gierach travels around North America seeking out quintessential fishing experiences, whether it's at a busy stream or a secluded lake hidden amid snow-capped mountains. He talks about the art of fly-tying and the quest for the perfect steelhead fly (�The Nuclear Option�), about fishing in the Presidential Pools previously fished by the elder George Bush (�I wondered briefly if I'd done something karmically disastrous and was now fated to spend the rest of my life breathing the exhaust of this elderly Republican�), and the importance of traveling with like-minded companions when caught in a soaking rain (�At this point someone is required to say, �You know, there are people who wouldn't think this is fun'�). And though Gierach loses some fish along the way, he never loses his passion and sense of humor. Wry, contemplative, and lively-that is to say, pure Gierach-All Fishermen Are Liars is a joy to listen to-and, as always, the next best thing to fishing itself.
