Book Club Ep #9: Chris McCully, prolific fishing writer and author of Nomads of the Tides: Fishing for Irish Sea Trout
Description
This week we’re joined by the prolific angling writer, Chris McCully.
Chris has been a regular contributor to Trout & Salmon magazine and in his spare time has written not just on fishing, but also English academic works as well as poetry.
In Ireland though he’s probably best known for 'Nomads of the Tides: Fishing for Irish Sea Trout', which he wrote with Ken Whelan back in 2013 and it’s still a hugely respected and definitive book on sea trout fishing around Ireland.
We’ve plenty to talk to Chris about for this book club episode, including his recent memoir, 'The River of All Goodbyes', and one that got our interest, 'Names of the Fish - In British & Irish Freshwaters'. Did you know, for example, that there are over seventy different words for sea trout with plenty of Irish versions as well.
