Wish too much of this didn't resonate.

When fishing, a person ought to carry a flask of whisky in case of snakebite. Furthermore, he ought to also carry along a small snake.

Many of us spend our lives dreaming of our bucket list, while a few lucky bums actually get to act their's out.
McGuane's stories will help add to our dreams and expand our bucket list.

"What is most emphatic in angling is made so by the long silences-the unproductive periods." -T. McGuane

In the late 60's a group of poets, writers and musicians descended upon the southernmost point of the continental United States to pursue their love of literature and fishing. Initiated by Tom McGuane - the prodigal son of American Literature in the 1970's - his friends Jim Harrison, Richard Brautigan, Russell Chatham and Jimmy Buffett soon joined him. This crew and that era were captured on film by Guy De La Valdene and Christian Odasso in an obscure documentary called "Tarpon" in 1974. They went on to create some of the best art, poetry, novels, and music of their generation - but there will never be anything like Key West in the early 70's. If you were lucky to survive it.

A freebie from SELC 🙂

Sometimes David really does slay Goliath.

Big win for SELC, and the grass roots movements that refused to quit.
Kudos to all involved.
