Two Thirds Water is a collection of fly-fishing essays covering Arnie Sabatelli's broad and varied lifetime experience of fishing all kinds of waters, salt and freshwater, from remote Adirondack ponds to the Long Island Sound, Bahamian flats, Michigan steelhead rivers, and tiny streams high in the mountains of Mexico. Fly fishing for Arnie is such a meaningful pursuit and through it, in the quiet time on the waters and the reflection and introspection that follow, Arnie contemplates the presence of water within and around us to come to a deeper understanding of who he is and what matters. In these essays, whether he's praising the raw, muscularity of catching bluefish, enjoying the solitude of hiking into remote places to fish from canoe, looking at quantum physics to address nuanced dimensions of catching fish with a fly, or using fishing memories to express feelings of personal loss, Arnie reaches for and grasps the mystery and beauty at the heart of fly fishing. The collection will inspire you to look more fully at the world around you, especially the fish-filled waters covering two-thirds of our planet.
Arnie Sabatelli writes on fly fishing for Gray's Sporting Journal, Fly Fisherman, TU, The Flyfish Journal and Adirondack Life. He has a regular following on his Substack, Journey Casts. This is his first book. Now retired from teaching at the high school and college level, Arnie is pursuing his writing career fulltime when not fishing. He lives in Bethany, Connecticut.
"A vibrant, smart, and essential new voice. These essays are engaging and magical." --Nick Lyons
