"Moving Water"


ONE OF OUR FAVORITE fly fishing books of recent years is a collection titled Astream. Edited by Robert DeMott, former Edwin and Ruth Kennedy Distinguished Professor of English at Ohio University, the book contains 30 essays by some of the finest writers and storytellers in the sport. "Moving Water," by Michael Keaton, is both reminiscence and tribute, and though Keaton wrote it when he was 37, it remains one of our favorite tales about the continuity that flows from generation to generation.

MICHELANGELO'S TARPON

"IN OCTOBER 2011 I walked into the Sistine Chapel for the second time in twenty years, and looking above the altar I was astounded to see a tarpon peering out from behind Jonah’s left leg. The tarpon (Megalops atlanticus) is one of my favorite light-tackle sport fish, because it readily takes flies and is a spectacular fighter.'”  Read on...
