Catching 22

Catching 22 is a story of a trout bum dropping everything to embark on a quest in search of something greater. Zach Christiansen wrote this memoir to release an untold story buried deep within, to express the raw emotion of a depressed college graduate, and to bring awareness to the non-traditional adventures available in the world of fly fishing.

Join Zach Christiansen on his journey; exploring questions of history, conservation, and the underrepresented species of trout that are hanging on to their genetic purity by a thread. Christiansen hopes to instill the audience with the same sort of passion and excitement that he has for untamed places and wild fish, ultimately inspiring them to be vulnerable, adventurous, and true to themselves.

Some of the native trout stories you'll hear in this book include...

• Traversing New Mexican slot canyons in search of wild Gila trout.
• Pack rafting the remote Montana wilderness to target Bull Trout.
• Exploring unnamed Alaskan lakes while casting for Arctic char.

This book is for those that enjoy off the beaten path adventures, the history and conservation of wild species, and unexpected mishaps of days on the water!
