Fly Fishing Book Review: True Love and the Woolly Bugger

Erin Ryan reviews Dave Ames’s 1996 book True Love and the Woolly Bugger, which Lyons Press brought out again in a paperback edition last summer. “Flipping through the last chapter with peanut-stained fingers, I was filled with the kind of lightness that makes you smile to yourself—like suddenly you’re in on the secret and plan to do something great with the borrowed wisdom. My greatness only amounted to seven scribbled pages that day, but the afterglow from Ames’ wonderful memoir hasn’t faded.” On BoiseWeekly.com.
