Fishing the Angles: New Writing about Fly Fishing (10/10/2005;
collection)
As fly fishing drifts downstream into the 21st century, anglers are
faced with
overcrowded streams and lakes, declining water quality, and political and
cultural marginalization. In spite of this, we fish. Why? What do we
get out if
it? This proposed collection, *Fishing the Angles: New Writing about Fly
Fishing*, is looking for works that capture the meaning and magic(or the
lack of
meaning and magic) of fly fishing, works that explore, transgress, and
subvert
this most literary of "Outdoor Sports." Tell us-show us-what fly fishing
means
and how it works.
*Fishing the Angles* seeks: Critical Essays, Memoir, Creative Non-fiction,
Fiction, and Poetry. Prose works should be less than 5000 words. Email
submissions are preferred, as attachments in .rft format or pasted into
the body
of the email.
Send submissions to: fly-angle@tamu.edu
Purists can mail hardcopies of their work to:

Department of English

Texas A&M University
College Station, Texas 77843-4227
Please include a brief bio with your submission.
Submission deadline is October 10, 2005.
