First sentence: Perfection is as illusory in fishing as it is in any other
aspect of life, yet practice brings with it certain plateaus
of near-perfection.
Description: Small Fry: The Lure of the Little is a literary study of small fish and small waters, a survey of fly fishing literature, and a personal memoir contrasting youthful fishing stories with contemporary angling adventures. The author’s search for small fry on the fly takes him to places as remote as the small streams in the Appalachian Mountains and as urban as the ponds in Manhattan’s Central Park. Laced with the humor and poetry of experience, Small Fry reveals why “the lure of the little” is a passion worth catching.
