The twentieth anniversary edition of the acclaimed memoirist’s masterpiece of Montana fly fishing with a new preface by the author—“I love Nick Lyons’s books” (Ted Hughes).
The Spring Creek river in central Montana is where you’ll find trout as long as your arm—trout that are exceedingly difficult to catch. Master fisherman Nick Lyons is all-too-familiar with the river’s secrets and is ready to confront its greatest challenges. At first, he catches only a few fish. But, over time, he acquires the skills and discipline necessary to take the large wary brown trout of the defiant river.
Novelist Craig Nova says Spring Creek conveys “the magic that always exists between somebody who loves fishing and a particular piece of water that endlessly lives up to its end of the bargain.” Called Lyons's masterpiece, it is a book all fishermen will cherish.
