The Brantford Public Library has asked me to speak as part of a fishing series in support of their new fishing tackle lending library. Since early childhood libraries have been a central part of my being; whether it was to research a school paper, read the latest fiction, get the latest copy of Ontario Out of Doors, picking up books for the kids… Over years libraries have adapted with the times, lending music, audio books, power tools, sporting equipment and more. So when I heard that The Brantford Library was lending fishing equipment, I was overjoyed at their initiative. I’m pleased that their research led them to my book, Mighty Smallmouth, and that they reached out to me for the speaking engagement.
