Download Your Copy Zipping My Fly: Moments In The Life Of An American Sportsman Originated By Rich Tosches Distributed In Paper Edition

book surprised me. Looked like your normal garage sale book, . . Though it is occasionally cheesy, there were more than a few times that I laughed out loud, Worthy of a read, if you're a flyer, . . Rich Tosches was touted somewhere on the book as "combining Dave Barry and David Sedaris" in the flyfishing world, Ummmmm, no. Not even close. That's an insult to those other men, who truly are funny,

"Zipping My Fly" reads as if Tosches decided to make sure every sentence in the book had a joke when he went back to edit the pounding of jokes never

stops to let you enjoy anything subtle and most of them read as afterthoughts.

So he's not funny, Why do I keep reading I hope to at least get some good stories about fly fishing, Do I No. Not a single one. Each story is an excuse to tell terrible jokes fly fishing only serves as the context for the jokes,
So sarcastic I had trouble determining what exactly was true and what was not, It was a very different style of fishing writing, I enjoyed his selfdeprecation, as I too am a clumsy fisherman who can go many trips without seeing a fish, But I also enjoyed his connection to his children and the role fishing played in that, Imagine A River Runs Through It seen through the eyes of Dave Barry and you'll get an idea of Rich Tosches' sharpeyed reflections on the art, hobby, and obsession of fly fishing.


Armed with a rod, a pen, and an eccentric sense of humor, Pulitzer Prizenominated sportswriter Rich Tosches headed for the Grand Teton Mountains, site of the World Fly Fishing Championship, and cast a keen eye on his fellow trollers from all over the globe.
This encounterand many others during a lifetime dedicated to the pursuit of fly fishing are captured in a sidesplitting collection of observations on every angleand anglerof one of America's favorite pastimes.
