Rex shares his more than 20 years of experience. You will learn: the most up-to-date information on which waters hold trout; when is the best time to fish each water; what species you will find; hatches; the best presentations to fish these sometimes tricky waters; special safety tips; useful maps; average flows; and much more. Arizona fly fishermen know what they have--streams that hold wild trout that can be fished for in shirt sleeves year round, So whether you are an Arizona resident or just there on business, get Arizona Trout--A Fly Fishing Guide so you know where to find the best trout fishing. 8 1/2 x 11, color insert.
I receive $1.30 royalty for every copy of the Quiet Mountains sold at retail price, slightly less for my other books. These dollars provide for a modest check, which arrives every year about Christmas time.
My mother's and father's families have been in this country since colonial times. Mount Mitchell in North Carolina was named after an ancestor on my father's side. I'm a shirt-tail relative to William B., John, and Tallulah Bankhead, all semi-well-known names in northern Alabama(though the Tallulah River is in northeastern Georgia).
I ran for the US Congress in 1994 (2nd district, New Mexico), as the candidate for the Green Party, and received 5000 votes, not enough to demand a recount.(Each congressional district sees roughly 100,000 votes cast per election.)My campaign war chest contained $400.
I grew up in the South, then moved to Minnesota at age twelve.
I spent a year in Canada in the 1970s and got a job on a salmon purse-seiner. (I rowed the skiff to shore and tied the rope end of the net to large trees--lots of fun, but no accident insurance.)
I teach math at a small college.
Married, with children. That's about it.
