Voelker's Pond: A Robert Traver Legacy
(Synopsis) John Voelker was a fly fishing icon - and to avid readers of 1950s best sellers and to classic film buffs, he was also known as Robert Traver the author of award-winning classics such as Trout Madness, Trout Magic and novel turned Academy Award winning movie, Anatomy of a Murder. John Voelker was also a Michigan Supreme Court justice. And either way he was a man who needed little introduction, fr he was the man who Charles Kuralt befriended and in the end called the closest thing to a great man [he] ever met.John Voelker had a fishing spot - a private retreat more or less - in the northern portion of Michigan's upper peninsula. Millions of people are familiar with this place in the woods through his words, but never before has a professional photographer captured with such stunning beauty, the one-room cabin nestled in the woods, the glacial pond where native brook trout remain elusive, the forest that surrounds it all, as well as the rods, the flies, and the small nuances that tell the story of an extraordinary man, and the legacy he leaves behind.
