Catching The Drift - by Matthew Gutchess (Paperback)

About the Book

Book Synopsis

Twenty-plus years in the United States Army had trained him, taught him, shaped him, but it couldn't prepare Jack for seeing the two most important people in his life, his beloved grandparents, on the eve of his retirement.

The only problem? They had been dead for fifteen years.

Scared shitless and questioning everything he had ever known, Jackson Straw heads west on the fishing trip of a lifetime, a journey which tests his angling skills and fortitude, while pushing his grasp on reality to the breaking point.

Review Quotes

When I met Matthew Gutchess in an upstate New York tackle store a decade ago, I had no idea that he'd be my guide on an emotional literary journey through our shared passion of fishing. His notion that "Rivers have a way of awakening things inside of us that we did not know were even there" will resonate with anglers and non-anglers alike.
