Rob's introduction to fly fishing literature started with a copy of Sex, Death, And Fly Fishing while on vacation in The Galápagos Islands during the summer of 1993. The writings of John Gierach inspired Rob to pursue a lifetime of trout fishing, fly tying, travelling to Colorado, writing, and telling stories. Rob wanted to be a trout bum before he could drive a car. Rob talks about his fondness for Gierach's work and his inspiration which led Rob to talk into a microphone instead of tap stories onto a keyboard. John's life of trout fishing ended in October 2024. His voice will be missed by the entire fishing community. Thankfully his words will last forever on paper. Be sure to read his collected works, short stories, periodical contributions from the past four decades. I will always think of him when I hear the bagpipes. Learn more about your ad choices.

With the passing of a great author, something much more significant is lost than a new title every few years. First and foremost a man is gone. Beyond that, the fly fishing world has lost a voice. Today I reflect a bit on Gierach's impact on the fly fishing world. From adding popular phrases to spurring on countless imitators, he moved generations of anglers in many ways. At the heart of it all is the fact that he was a consistent voice for anglers across five decades. Consistency, especially today, matters. Learn more about your ad choices.

John Gierach publishedTrout Bum in 1986. The book was an immediate hit with fly-fishing enthusiasts as it provided a fresh look at the sport as well as the devotion and passion that keeps trout devotees up all night, tying flies all winter and exploring newfound waters in hard-to-reach locales. Trout Bum is as much about why people fish as as it is about the act of fishing. Following the book's launch, many anglers quit their jobs, moved out West and became trout bums. Gierach joined the Anglers Journal Book Club discussion to answer reader's questions about his famous book and the impact Trout Bum had on the fly-fishing world. He also discusses his overall writing career and his other books. It's a lively discussion that will definitely put a smile on your face.

This week's Otis Brown Podcast borrows a title from the great fly fishing essayist John Gierach's 1999 book of the same name. Gierach's humorous and insightful writing casts a long shadow over the podcast and his 1986 book Trout Bum provided a practical handbook for much of my early life. The text I engage most this week, though, is Richard Brautigan's wild and scenic Trout Fishing in America. I hope I do justice to my passion for catch-and-release fly fishing by translating it into something edifying or at least enjoyable for you.As always, thank you so much for supporting the podcast!

John Gierach is one of the most iconic fishing writers of all time. Having published 20 books and countless articles, it’s been said that John may be the only fly fishing writer who’s made a decent living at the craft. It’s not hard to believe—John’s talent for bringing words to life is something only time and dedication can master. In this episode of Anchored, I meet with John for the first time at his home in Colorado. He lets me pick his brain about his upbringing and life as an author, as well as his thoughts on staying passionate about fishing, being a trout bum, climate change, and the use of profanity.

Check out the show notes here for studies, books, and concepts referenced in this episode.
The FN Book Club is back! This month we read John Gierach's newest book "A Fly Rod of Your Own" we loved the book and we got to talk with John! This is a big deal. Thanks to Simon and Schuster for helping us set this up. John Gierach, “the voice of the common angler” (The Wall Street Journal) and member of the Fly Fishing Hall of Fame, brings his sharp sense of humor and keen eye for observation to the fishing life and, for that matter, life in general. John Gierach is known for his witty, trenchant observations about fly-fishing. In A Fly Rod of Your Own (Simon & Schuster; April 4, 2017; $25.00), Gierach once again takes us into his world and scrutinizes the art of fly-fishing. He travels to remote fishing locations where the airport is not much bigger than a garage and a flight might be held up because a passenger is running late. He sings the praises of the skilled pilots who fly to remote fishing lodges in tricky locations and bad weather. He explains why even the most veteran fisherman seems to muff his cast whenever he’s being filmed or photographed. He describes the all-but-impassable roads that fishermen always seem to encounter at the best fishing spots and why fishermen discuss four-wheel drive vehicles almost as passionately and frequently as they discuss fly rods and flies. And while he’s on that subject, he explains why even the most conscientious fisherman always seems to accumulate more rods and flies than he could ever need.

Few writers in the realm of fly-fishing have achieved the iconic status of John Gierach. One of the great honors of my career has been to have piqued Gierach's interest in tenkara, and then to fish with him on a few occasions. Last year he released his latest book, All Fishermen are Liars, I'm still debating whether the inclusion in a book with this title is something of which to be proud...but I guess I am. John and I sat down last year to have a conversation about his experiences with tenkara . We put out the video you can see on the link: http://www.tenkarausa.com/john-gierach-talks-tenkara-all-fishermen-are-liars/. Since that interview several people asked us to release the full interview, and the podcast is a great medium for that. So, here is our unabridged conversation...except for a couple of small cuts for when we got too distracted by his cute cats.
