Travers Corners: Classic Stories About Fly Fishing and a Small Montana Town
The title locale is a small Montana town near the picturesque Elkheart Mountains and Carrie Creek, a flyfisher's paradise. It's the fictional setting for nine engaging stories graced by witty homespun characters. Jud Clark, a boat builder and fishing guide, is the central figure who interacts with the other townsfolk and tourists seeking his angling services. Other remarkable characters include a septuagenarian anthropologist fishing from a boat through some fierce rapids, a likable misfit named Quintin who catches a big trout using a cane pole for a rod, and a Bentley-driving Brit who shows up in the last chapter and provides an ancestral link for several residents.
