In Casting Iconic Waters, writer, naturalist, and educator Steve
Ramirez takes the reader on a physical and philosophical journey to
some of the most legendary rivers and wild landscapes in America.
Imbued with fly-fishing throughout, this journey will seek to
explore what makes certain places feel magical and meaningful. How
do we define “iconic” when considering wild places that have
seemingly held the ability to restore our souls and fill them with
feelings of peace, belonging, awe, and gratitude? Each of these
chosen regions has been considered an iconic destination for anyone
who yearns for the wild places that are distinctly American. From
the songbird-filled hardwoods of New England to the jack-pine
Northwoods where wolves still sing in the night. From the
Yellowstone Valley where bison feed next to tumbling trout streams
to Bristol Bay where brown bears compete with anglers for salmon,
steelhead, and leopard spotted rainbow trout. And each of these
destinations has served as the birthplaces of American literature
that is intrinsically connected to the landscape and inspired by a
love of the outdoors. In Casting Iconic Waters, these legendary
places will give us new stories – the stories of this century
that are yet untold. .
