Tarpon Trials & Tribulations |
|||||
|
From Key West to Belize to Venezuela, Tosh Brown has passionately pursued this big-eyed behemoth of the Atlantic. As the owner of a fledgling sporting travel business, Tosh had the good fortune of visiting some of the most productive tarpon waters of the world and fishing with some of the best guides in the business. This is his insightful and humorous account of chasing the Silver King with a fly rod, along with some discussion of the storied history of the tarpon fishery along his native Texas coast. This Meadow Run Press book is illustrated with a full-color section of the author's photographs, along with vintage black & white images of tarpon fishing near Port Aransas, Texas in the early 1900's. Mixed throughout are interesting observations on the difficulty in casting to, hooking, releasing tarpon - often as large as the angler - from a small outboard skiff. Megalops is a pure delight and a fine collectible edition for any saltwater fly fisherman's library. |
"It's a rare fishing book these days that leaves you wanting more, but Tosh Brown's Megalops fits the bill nicely. Brown has authored a lively and thoughtful homage to tarpon; a well drawn account of a healthy obsession" - Gray's Sporting Journal "As the subtitle suggests, this isn't a how-to book; Brown weaves a combination of humor, whimsy, history, speculation and some genuinely great fish stories to capture the obsession with tarpon. What makes Megalops shine is the writing. It has style and voice, rarities in the fishing book business" - Saltwater Fly Fishing
"Brown pours out the details of his
passion for tarpon in this charming little book; a book that's not
only pleasing to read, but also pleasing to own" -
