New Fly Fishing Book Excerpt: "Blue Upright"

When Steve Raymond’s Year of the Trout came out in 1983 — written about fly fishing in the great rivers of the Pacific Northwest — it leapt out of the current run of angling books as something altogether different. Raymond’s most recent books have remained, in the minds of many reviewers and readers, examples of how angling literature at its best transcends fishing. On MidCurrent you can now read a chapter from Raymond’s most recent work, Blue Upright.
