Synopsis

This collection of short stories is about all the fun my buddies and I have while pretending to be fishing and hunting. Occasionally, fish and critters are caught, but the biggest catch is always the fun we have together while enjoying the outdoors and coping with the pranks mother nature plays on us. Come along for the ride and learn about the ghastly bullfrog mauling endured by Randy, my inept attempts to teach myself the subtle art of fly fishing, adventures in pursuit of landlocked salmon and the mighty muskellunge. Learn how we used to hunt whitetail deer with no sights on our shotguns, and whether I got the big buck I stalked for an entire hunting season with bow and arrow. Your life will surely be incomplete until you know the answers to these burning mysteries. Check out the free sample, but watch out, you might get hooked!

À propos de l'auteur

Kirk Arndt lives in Willmar, Minnesota, with his daughter and dog. He is a lifelong jester, outdoor sports enthusiast, and resident of the Midwest. He has been writing short stories about his hunting and fishing trips to read aloud to friends and family around the campfire for over 20 years. They have grown to an intolerable volume, and hence, like kittens, they must be foisted off onto unsuspecting victims such as yourself!Ever since reading Mark Twain's On the Decay of the Art of Lying, Kirk has been endeavoring to improve himself in this regard, at least in his humorous writing! Although his stories are based on real life misadventures, in the tradition of the American tall tale, they occasionally slip into the realm of embellishment. Half the fun of reading these stories is trying to guess when the author is pulling your leg! When he is not stalking wild mushrooms or fly fishing for carp, Kirk indulges in other small-boy passions, such as forging knives and building bows and arrows. To fund these activities, he labors as a Licensed Behavior Analyst, fondly remembering the good old days when, as an at-risk youth counselor, and he connived a way to make a spindly living by addicting naughty teens into staying out of trouble by teaching them how to fish and shoot the bow and arrow!
