Jon Tobey of “Go Into The Light” has been reading, and fishing.

It turns out the Jon shares his home water with Henry David Thoreau. And what he has learned from Thoreau about this place is quite enlightening. It’s also a riveting perspective on action and consequence. Would you be surprised to know that Thoreau was calling for the removal of dams in 1849 and warning of how they would irrevocably change the environment?

Like Thoreau, Jon is a concerned angler and a hell of a writer. Take a few minuets to wade with he and Thoreau in the waters of the Concord and Merrimack. You may learn a thing or two.
