Reading The Fly Rod Chronicles is a pleasure. In chapter one, Landerman casts his line. In chapter two, he sets the hook. In chapter three, he starts his retrieve.  As Landerman pulls you in, he shares stories about his childhood fishing adventures, his uncensored views on fishing politics, his near death experience, his family fishing trips, SWAMBO, and George. He also captures the essence of fly flying. Fly fishing is not just about catching fish for food or modeling catalog merchandise to fashion-ignorant trout. Fly fishing is about learning, playing, mastering an art, and teaching others this art.

I must disclose that although I was released at the end of the last chapter, I am now hooked on fly fishing. I am in the market for my first fly rod!

Tempus fugit. Fly fish.
