Fly Fishing
Content
By Peter W. Fong| Fly Fisherman Verified My guiding career was launched with lies. Or—at the very least—unwarranted exaggeration. I was working as a cashier at the time, at the Grant Village Marina in Yellowstone National Park. The marina was operated by the now-defunct Yellowstone Park Company, which hired college students and retirees from all over the United States to serve the summer tourists. At Grant Village, the company’s offerings included boat rentals and guided fishing trips.

By Peter W. Fong| Fly Fisherman Verified Pick up a copy of Fly Fisherman's special publication Destinations 2023 here!The last time I fly fished in the Pyrenees (which was also the first time), one of the guides told me of a Spanish saying that translates as “they gave it to me with cheese”—which means, essentially, that you admit to being cheated. Fond as I am of value-added dairy products, I took to the phrase immediately, repeating it over and over in my brain even before I could ascertain the details of its origin.
