About this deal

My family started a tradition in 2013 when my father and I took my then-12-year-old son, Jonah, to Santa Fe. It identifies, for each month of the year, what you should be looking for and which flies to use to imitate the insects hatching around you.

Mark Twain said, “The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why. It gives you the tools and inspiration you need to celebrate, mark and appreciate each month of the year in your own particular way. Unions: From Stimulant for the Economy to Cancer (page 86) was an essay I should have written a decade ago. Her reinvention of the traditional rural almanac has become an annual must-have for readers eager to connect with the seasons, appreciate the outdoors and discover ways to mark and celebrate each month. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others.When your behavior is misaligned with your values, when what you do day in and day out is misaligned with what you want to be and to be doing, and when the version of yourself you show to the world is very different than the real you, you will experience dissonance – an internal conflict.

Divided into the 12 months and providing practical information that gives access to the outdoors and the seasons.

I don’t want to look back at my life and think I held back, that I didn’t stand up for what is right, that I didn’t make the positive change I could have because I didn’t want to make some people upset at me. Not because what I wrote is so brilliant, but because the lack the ownership I experience for the sentences that came out of my own mind. I have little control over where the stream of thoughts that passes from my subconscious to my conscious awareness will take me. Almost every single time, when I read what I just wrote, I get a hard-to-describe feeling somewhere between wonder and amazement.

Rereading my essays, I relive the year again; they are tiny bookmarks of my life, which makes the almanacs bookends of the year. It includes key dates, tide tables and garden tasks; constellations and moon phases; sunrises, folk songs, seasonal recipes plus a ‘bun of the month’; and – because 2023 will be a good year for planet spotting – the solar system and the zodiac. Something you can annotate and make notes in, allowing you to refer back to in years to come - helping you ‘crack the code’ on those difficult days. I'm a firm believer that each river has its own nuances as far as fishing (and the fish contained within it) are concerned, and that the most successful anglers on any given stretch of water are the ones with the most experience of it.

In this bleak December, I'm hearted by the fact that we are approaching the Winter solstice tomorrow. The Fly Fishers Entomology - A seminal publication from 1836 by Alfred Ronalds, the first to detail river fly life from the angler's point of view.
