Better than Canned Spaghetti,

This review is from: The Kelly Creek Chronicles (Paperback)
A stream ecologist takes up fly fishing here. And in this 80 page book, the author strikes out for Kelly Creek in Idaho. For the better part of 15 years "Cush" makes an annual pilgrimage to a remote stretch of creek in the Clearwater National Forest.
Each year's trip varies primarily in weather and numbers of trout caught. Get this - a ten to twenty fish day is considered "slow" for these guys. The cast of anglers changes slightly from trip to trip. Cush brings work colleagues, in-laws, the wife and his son. The latter years chronicled have a similar rhythm and become predictable, but thankfully its a quick read. You have to admire Cush's connection with this water to return year after year regardless of weather or car problems. What I admire most about Cush though is his simple, basic approach. He fishes a Royal Wulff almost exclusively and doesn't go beyond a can of spaghetti for dinner. As you read the Kelly Creek Chronicles you come to realize the recipe for success on this remote creek is pretty simple. |
