Fly fishing is a distinct and ancient angling method, most renowned as a method for catching trout and salmon, but employed today for a wide variety of species including pike, bass, panfish, and carp, as well as marine species, such as redfish, snook, tarpon, bonefish and striped bass.
Rabbi Eric noticed that there are two types of fly fishing books, the technical and the metaphorical.
The technical books offer advice to improve one’s casting or find the best streams in an area. Yet I find myself drawn to the writers who use fishing as a jumping off point for deeper lessons about life.
The first book to use fishing as a metaphor is the biblical book of Jonah, although in this case the fish catches the Jonah and not the other way around!
