(2) K-3 A father tells his son this one-that-got-away tall tale. Jangles, legendary trout of Big Lake, had "broken so many fishing lines that his huge, crooked jaw was covered with shiny metal lures and rusty old fishhooks..." Working with a palette as dark and evocative as the depths in which his elusive character dwells, Shannon provides formidable close-up views of this battle-scarred, larger-than-life character.
