Author Alan Liere writes about doing whatever it takes to get permission to fish a farmer's private stream. "'Dwayne wants to kiss you,' the lady said. 'See how he's cocking his head. Just stick your face over the fence, mister, and I'll bet you can kiss him.' 'I'm trying to quit,' I mumbled. Nevertheless, I knew the rules of permission- seeking, so I closed my eyes and stuck my face over the fence. Dwayne snorted, lassoing my eyebrows and nose with a great gob of hog slobber." Excerpted on the Spokesman Review from Liere's new book Fish Tales (Stackpole Books, January 2009, 176 pages).
