"The traumas of trout fishing, like all traumas, require not aimless thrashing and cursing, but grace."If you ever had any doubts that fishing is an art form, put on your wading boots and step lightly into the stream with Professor Ron McFarland. If you must speak, then whisper, better to hear the hum of the line made taut by the pull of a trout.For half a century Ron has had two passions: his beloved fishing, and the romance of the English language, expressed as a lifelong career teaching literature and writing. These two endeavors do not compete for his attention; rather, they complement each other. Fishing has taught him grace-in fact, required it, and the love of language has given him the ability to convey the art and pleasures of fishing with a narrative that flows smooth as running water. There is speculation that fish compete for the right to be caught by the man of such grace and wisdom.Read Professor McFarland in Reel Time before you disregard such murmurings.
