Bad Water

Don Alloway is a freelance writer who has traveled to three continents and more than twenty countries in pursuit of trout and other game fish. In BAD WATER, Alloway takes us along on his sixty-five year fly fishing odyssey. We meet a lady who fishes in high heels and a bathing suit, a priest who flies his own plane, a tackle shop proprietor who smokes cigarettes made of lettuce, and a stream of eccentrics and oddballs all of whom share the author's passion for fly fishing. From the sub-Arctic to the Amazon and points east and west, the author takes us to his favorite lakes and rivers and into the open ocean as he pursues the holy grail of all fishermen, good water filled with big fish.
