Over here at Troutrageous! I’ve been maintaining a relationship with Kype Magazine for the better part of the last 3 years. It’s not unique, other bloggers also post the “free issues” on their sites, I just continue to do so because happen to enjoy the magazine and the people involved.
As such, I thought it would be worth mentioning a “Kickstarter” project that George Douglas (Kype’s publisher) has currently running. His goal – to publish a book called The Fishing Gods – which will ambitiously attempt to harness 500 years worth of fly fishing knowledge into a hardbound book, worthy of any fisherman’s library.
Excerpt from press release:
THE FISHING GODS
Author and Publisher, George Douglas has just completed his latest fly fishing project ! Five hundred years of experience compiled in one amazing book—the stories, techniques, and flies of the top American & Canadian Fly Fishing Guides. We’d like to refer to them as the “Sweet Sixteen”…April Vokey, Loren Williams, Scott Howell, Lori-Ann Murphy, & Josh Nugent just to name a few. The foreword is written by Dec Hogan — and all the step by step fly patterns were recreated and photographed by Dec Hogan and Marty Howard. This book is sure to be a classic in the fishing industry for years to come…Be a part of this project and pre-order your copy at:
