Shadows in the Stream

Excerpt From the Long Pond on the Little Magalloway Chapter:

“If fly fishing is a religion, then Long Pond on the Little Magalloway River is one of its more sacred shrines. Speak of the place to locals and they will deny its existence. Query a guide and he will quickly change the subject to Upper Dam, the Kennebago River, or perhaps the lower Magalloway below Route 16. Those who will admit having fished Long Pond speak of it with reverence, in hushed tones, eyes glazed over. It is a place haunted by truth.”

on a personal level and does the one thing all good fishing books should do: make me want
 to fish there.”
