In 1932, a farmer named George Washington Perry decided it was too
rainy to plow and went fishing. That day, George landed the largest
largemouth ever recorded-twenty-two pounds four ounces. The fish
has inspired and frustrated hundreds of anglers for decades.
They've dedicated their lives to the pursuit of "Sowbelly"-a nearly
mythical fish, whose swinelike girth holds the key to their
dreams.From an L.A. cop who came within ounces of besting the
record to an Alabaman who has lost his marriage and his daughter to
this pursuit, Burke takes readers along for the ride in this
legendary race.
Celebrating 75 years of conservation, the Atlantic Salmon Treasury
works as a "best of" for the influential Atlantic Salmon Journal.
This fascinating volume includes a curated selection of articles
and essays by some of North America's best writers on the art and
lore of the wild Atlantic salmon. Beginning in 1948, the Atlantic
Salmon Journal began publishing information and conservation
material about the "king of fish". In 1975, it released a Treasury
from its first 25 years. This new edition takes up where the
earlier volume ended, tracing the rise of salmon angling as a sport
and into the era of conservation and the catch-and-release
movement. The result is a journey through time with acclaimed
writers such as Harry Bruce, Joan Wulff, Wilfred Carter, Thomas
McGuane.
