I understand I am a little late reading this book as it was released in September 2020, however Lords of the Fly deserved the wait. Loaded with wild stories including legends of our sport and the early days of fly fishing for tarpon. Liked hearing about flats boat styles, the starts of Tibor and Abel reel business, modern-day guides and the fascination that burns in IGFA record hunters. I truly take pleasure in checking out history books and Burke communicates the history of Tarpon fishing remarkably. He covers the tarpon’s location in history as I had actually never ever heard, consisting of art and Scriptural tradition. Coming fresh off my very first journey to the Keys chasing after these ancient giants last June, I might actually not put this book down. Hope you enjoy it too.
