find tales about “Anything Fly Fishing.” But let’s explore a bit more. Fishermen, by nature, are often talented storytellers. You’ve no doubt heard the term “whopper,” which relates to both a large fish and a whale-of-a-tale.
Rivers and Feathers, a Free online magazine dedicated to fly fishing, has attracted some of the country’s best piscatorial pens to our writers’ pool. These committed anglers are eager to share their fly fishing experiences. While their stories are technically considered non-fiction, like any good fishing tale, some may still include a genuine whopper or two.
Wherever there’s fresh or saltwater teeming with feisty fish, you’ll find a short story on Rivers & Feathers. From kayaking in the Everglades for gator seatrout to spey casting in Ireland for Atlantic salmon, there’s a steady stream of entertaining and informative articles to inspire your next adventure. If it’s not featured now, keep an eye out. We add new content every week! Consider sending in your own story! Along with short stories, Rivers and Feathers features many other components, including Product Reviews and Outdoor News.
