I read all of John Gierach's flyfishing books, on my last one in print now, and I know he makes enough to not work any other job and flyfishes everywhere all year long. If that suits you then thier is some kind of success there. I know what you mean though. How many times can you spin the same yarn? O'Reilly would call it bloviating about fishing. All of the SB authors probably have those same dreams and it doesn't pan out.
