I'll be reading some Roderick Haig-Brown. He's a freshwater guy, long dead. But his writing is some of the best fish writing out there.


Another re-read for me will be Thomas McGuane's "Ninety-two in the shade." The novel was published in 1972. It takes place in Key West. Its main character is a bonefish guide. Drugs, fishing and girls. The opening scene is an acid trip. Highly recommended reading. McGuane is a hell of a fish writer. He has a whole collection of fishing essays called "The longest silence," which I couldn't recommend more.
