The essays in STREAMWALKER'S JOURNEY are a celebration of the fly-fishing life, with a focus on the triple divide of watersheds in north-central Pennsylvania and upstate New York: the Genesee River, the Allegheny River, and Pine Creek. These are among the author's favorite trout streams, plied over decades so he knows them well. As he walks these waters with fly rod in hand, he delves into their natural history, local lore, and conservation efforts to protect them. He shares the methods and fly patterns he uses to tease trout into striking, while occasionally telling tales of anglers past and present. But most of all, Walt Franklin writes with skill, passion, and a touch of humor about his experiences on these trout streams as well as his interactions with the natural world at large.
