This is a fisherman's tall tale about a ribald angling contest between three middle-aged friends who love (and perhaps hate) each other. Coincidentally, all three men are professional writers. Every autumn for nineteen eyears they meet at the Big Arsenic Springs on the Rio Grande to fly-cast for trout and argue about life, literature, marriage, and eco-Armageddon.
