Tributaries

“Brod’s angling recollections have an energy and authenticity, as well as a presence, that puts you there…this book [is] far more than a collection of essays about catching fish.”—V. Paul Reynolds, editor of the Northwoods Sporting Journal  

 

“The writing in Tributaries is very clean and sharp…This book gives a remarkably vivid picture of the dreamlike world of obsessive fishing.”—Dana Wilde, The Working Waterfront

 

Tributaries is a collection of contemporary outdoor essays exploring the line between passion and obsession. Written through the lens of a late-30-something, the book explores complex, evolving relationships between fathers and sons; between fishing buddies; between anglers and guides; and between outdoorspeople and the landscapes they cherish. From the pine-encroached rivers of Maine’s Aroostook County, to the turquoise flats of Florida Bay, author Ryan Brod draws unexpected parallels between places, while introducing unforgettable characters determined to follow their outdoor passions no matter the cost. Rendered in vivid detail, Tributaries examines tensions between presence and memory, illuminating fleeting yet transcendent moments.
