Refelctive of a life well spent-angling for truth

Mike,outdoor writer, naturalist & conservation activist, passed away at 49. He epitomizes,in this his 2nd last book, the adage: "God does NOT! deduct from out Time here,on Earth,...days spent...fishing."

Days on the Water reflect days of the past

Days on the Water isn't a fishing book, per se. It's about the history, folklore, and traditions of fishing, as much well-written literature as it is a compendium of fishing lore and information. This isn't a "how to fish" book, or a "let me tell you how I bagged the big one" book. Days on the Water appeals to anglers, anglers' relatives, history buffs, nature enthusiasts, and those who appreciate good, straight-from-the-hip prose in the Hemingway style.
