Yet More Sweet Days
n 2010, one of America’s most accomplished flyfishing writers, Nick Lyon collated an anthology titled , and it includes , from Tom Sutcliffe’s (2004). For many flyfishers, here and abroad, that book with its combination of anecdote and instruction, made Tom a mentor whom they thought they knew, even if they had never met him. Almost two decades later, will justifiably expand his readership. This gentle, absorbing book is a flyfishing travelogue, an endearing diary of people and places. It takes us from fishing delicate, split-cane fly rods at the source of the Bokspruit in Rhodes, to swinging double-handed fly rods for salmon on the East Ranga River in Iceland. He covers the broad tapestry of freshwater flyfishing for trout, from the esoteric minutiae of fly pattern design to explorations of the ancient Japanese flyfishing technique of Tenkara. This is a book that flyfishers will read with pleasure, learn from, and return to again and again. For autographed copies link with Tom through his Spirit of Fly Fishing website.
