A friend pointed me in the direction of this website. Not as fishing orientated as it sounds, but it has some gems hidden in there, among some silliness it has to be said. I am enjoying it anyway.
been reading it for years. A great blog!

some very interesting & unexpected writers in here, too
I can highly recommend the words on water book . I particularly like Bill Drummonds chapter, " The Penkiln Burn. " I'm sure there is a piece of audio on the the blog somewhere with Drummond reading his chapter.
