Brilliant, witty, perceptive essays about fly-fishing, the natural world, and life in general by the acknowledged master of fishing writers. In Still Life with Brook Trout, John Gierach demonstrates once again that fishing, when done right, is as much a philosophical pursuit as a sport. Gierach travels to Wyoming and Maine and points in between, searching out new fly-fishing adventures and savoring familiar waters with old friends. Along the way he meditates on the importance of good guides (Really, the only thing a psychiatrist can do that a good guide can't is write prescriptions), the challenge of salmon fishing (Salmon prowl. If they're not here now, they could be here in half an hour. Or tomorrow. Or next month), and the zen of fishing alone (I also enjoy where my mind goes when I'm fishing alone, which is usually nowhere in particular and by a predictable route). On a more serious note, he ponders the damaging effects of disasters both natural and man-made: drought, wildfires, and the politics of dam-building, among others. Reflecting on a trip to a small creek near his home, Gierach writes, In my brightest moments, I think slowing down...has opened huge new vistas on my old home water. It's like a friendship that not only lasts, but gets better against the odds. Similarly, Still Life with Brook Trout proves that Gierach, like fly-fishing itself, becomes deeper and richer with time.Binding Type: Paperback

Excellent Quality and Worth Every Penny!
Size: 11.25“, Color: black-6 pack
I recently purchased the LEOPO 12-inch Shelf Brackets, Thick Heavy Duty Industrial Brackets, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The craftsmanship is exceptional—solid, well-constructed, and clearly designed with attention to detail. Installation was quick and effortless, and the brackets held perfectly level and secure right from the start.
They feel incredibly sturdy once mounted, providing reliable support and excellent stability for heavier shelving loads. The overall durability and performance exceeded my expectations, especially for the price.
I’d highly recommend these shelf brackets to anyone looking for strong, stylish, and dependable hardware to upgrade their storage or décor setup.

Well made brackets
Size: 11.25“, Color: black-6 pack, Size: 11.25“, Color: black-6 pack
These are nicely manufactured in that they are all exactly the same (with no variations) and with nice countersunk holes for the provided black flat head wood screws. I used a stained 1x12 #2 whitewood (Eastern Pine) from Lowes for the shelves. With these brackets solidly installed into wall studs at 32" on center (every other stud) the 1x12 shelf will easily support a heavy book load. I like the look better than the brackets that have the vertical leg below the shelf. It looks a lot cleaner.
It is probably inevitable that your stud layout will result in a bracket or two needing to be installed between solid wood studs. In this case, do NOT use the sheetrock wall anchors provided with the brackets as they will pull out of the wall under an appreciable load. Instead, get some "Snaptoggle" toggle bolts and replace the provided bolts with #10-24 x 1.25" flat head machine screws in black. These toggle bolts are incredibly strong and easy to install.
I am adding a postscript to my review regarding bracket spacing recommendations. With a heavy book load, the 1x12 shelf boards don't sag with the brackets spaced 32" apart, however I have found that the brackets themselves are overstressed by about 30% (they are only rated at 80# each.) Heavy books weigh up to about 36# per lineal foot so the maximum spacing of the brackets should be 24" apart. At 32" apart, they won't pull out of the wall if they are fastened into studs but they will sag a little bit back to front under this load. So I added additional brackets in between the installed brackets and now they are 16" apart at the heavy book shelf. The load on each bracket is now less than 50# but they STILL sag about 3/16" from back to front when loaded with books! No danger of structural failure and the sag is not really noticeable.
