Fly Fishing in Fast-Flowing Water

With its rugged forests and swift rivers, Michigan's Upper Peninsula offers the perfect setting for fly-fishing. Following in the footsteps of Ernest Hemingway's character Nick Adams, Bruce C. Petersen creates a unique coming-of-age memoir that departs from the typical story of growing from teen to adulthood. Instead, Petersen explores his seventh decade, chasing trout in the challenging waters of Northern Michigan while grappling with what it means to grow old. In this absorbing memoir, he relives his most memorable days as a fly-fisher and offers thoughtful reflections on the healing power of nature, aging gracefully, and the unstoppable passage of time.
