Review:
"The Yale Anglers'' Journal is a triumph of literacy and enthusiasm, a combination rarely seen these days."Thomas McGuane, author of The Longest Silence: A Life in Fishing -- Thomas McGuane This is the liveliest collection of angling (and angling-related) pieces I have read in a long time. And we can be confident that James Prosek's wonderful watercolors, included as a bonus here, will be a part of the sport permanently. Ian Frazier, author of The Fish's Eye --Ian Frazier" "One of the finest anthologies of contemporary angling writing I have read in the past 20 years.Tight Lines is full of interesting voices, vivid prose, and wonderfully original takes on the angling passion." Christopher Camuto, author of A Fly Fisherman's Blue Ridge, Another Country, and Hunting from Home and Professor of English at Bucknell University --Christopher Camuto" What a fresh, varied, and thoughtful anthology this is! It collects the best essays, poems, and stories from the first ten years of the Yale Anglers Journal and is like no other basket of fishing-in-print I know. Perhaps its greatest virtue is that it is consistently entertaining.
