Mrs. Bridge

I finished reading Mrs. Bridge by Even S. Connell last night and found it to be one of the most beautiful books I have ever read. Simply a wonderful read. I have never read a book that made me both laugh and cry out loud almost every chapter (aside from Mr. Bridge.) It is a touching story of an upper-middle class American family set in early 20th century Kansas City. Along with Mr. Bridge, the follow up, Connell creates a beautiful family portrait that I would like to recommend to everyone.

Hi, As part of some work I'm doing for a client, I need to talk to people who are interested in fishing and who often search the web for related information. The research is mostly based around keyword ('fly fishing' for example) selection. I've contacted people using fly fishing but I need to contact more. Can you suggest where else to look?
TIA
