From the books

Stories from the Series

Every Target Species title is a practical field guide: the right gear, proven waters across the USA, species biology, tips and tactics, and hard-won wisdom from anglers who came before us. Each book also includes one wholesome fictional story — and that story is what we share here, one species at a time, until the whole collection has had its turn.

New stories are available every Monday and Friday.
