Catching On: Love with an Avid Fly Fisher

In nineteen entertaining stories, some humorous, some spiritual, some probing, "Catching On" chronicles a southern woman's journey to understand her northwest husband's obsession with fly fishing, and how she fits into it.

Anyone who's tried to love and be loved will relate to this couple as they fish, fight, and love their way through: the southern "fishwife" image Carol can't stand but can't shake either; the truth about those "Nice fish!" videos; the reunion of a brown trout and a rainbow; two brands of bigamy; a battle over a bloody duck; enough fly-fishing loot to embarrass (almost) anybody; a force way more powerful than power bait; sin and redemption, British booby-fly style; the first (and last) teeny-tiny fishing rodeo; Carol's tuning into the "fly-fish song"; and much more. . .
