Holding Lies

I got this from the publisher and have read a few chapters.  At first I was a bit skeptical, but came to find that this is a Northwest Steelheader must read.  I'll give a more thorough review when done.  Until then, Matt Stansberry sums it up nicely here: Oregon Fly Fishing

Bull Trout's Gift

We were wealthy from the water,” Mitch Smallsalmon says, and like all the tribal elders, he speaks to our understanding of the natural world and the consequences of change. In this book the wisdom of the elders is passed on to the young as the story of the Jocko River, the home of the bull trout, unfolds for a group of schoolchildren on a field trip.

"Bull Trout's Gift," which follows an Arlee fifth-grade classroom on a field trip to the Jocko River, is the illustrated hardcover book.

"Explore the River: Bull Trout, Tribal People and the Jocko River" is the interactive, and intricate, multimedia DVD (which contains, the book as well).

The Blitz / A Year on the Road

This film chronicles a year on the road with Pete McDonald and Tosh Brown while they were shooting photos and gathering content for their new coffee table book, The Blitz, Fly Fishing The Atlantic Migration.

Disclaimer: this entire production was shot on a cheap-ass camcorder that fits in a shirt pocket. It ate about 50 pounds of AA batteries during this odyssey and died of saltwater sickness about two weeks after their last shoot.

Order a copy of The Blitz - $5 per copy is going select groups that are fighting to restore and sustain striped bass.
