Kirk Deeter, author of The Fisheable Feast, will talk Saturday April 18 in the Pavilion at Johns Island Presbyterian Church from 2:00-4:00 pm.
Whether you are a world-traveling angler or someone dreaming of taking a first trip, you will appreciate the complete joy of fly fishing portrayed in this book. Deeter is the editor-in-chief of Trout magazine and the former editor-at-large for Field & Stream. He has written stories on fishing from all fifty states and twenty-eight other countries around the world (and counting).
He will sign books following the presentation.
From crystal-chalk streams to saltwater flats, untamed jungles, and cascading mountain streams, this collection literally offers up the “tastes” of the most epic fly-fishing adventures in the world.
Fly fishing is ultimately less about catching fish and more about the experience–uniquely beautiful places and the people you meet along the way. A hugely important part of destination fishing is the post-angling gathering–often centered around local dishes. The food is what distinguishes these special places, and food is the medium through which fond memories are brought back to life.
Deeter is the author of several books, most notably A Fishable Feast, The Little Red Book of Fly Fishing and The Little Black Book of Fly Fishing. He and his wife, Sarah, live in Steamboat Springs, Colorado.
Saturday’s book proceeds will be donated to the JIPC Mission & Outreach Committee. Johns Island Presbyterian Church is located at 2550 Bohicket Road.
