A great heads-up this morning from my friends over at Midcurrent: Garrison Keillor (perhaps my favorite voice on radio) reading a poem by fly fisher, Ken Hada, entitled, “A Blessing.” Keillor could read the dictionary straight through and I’d listen, but his Writer’s Almanac is five minutes of history, prose and poetry that always seems [...]

If you’re hardcore about having fish everywhere in your life, here is another contribution to your needs. This is a re-worked version of a hand-tinted print series that I did years ago called “Steelhead Study #1″ (there was no #2, so that should tell you something about the success of #1). In any case, I [...]
