This remains one of my favorite Hemingway stories. It features Nick Adams who appears in several earlier stories, including The Indian Camp and The Doctor and the Doctor's Wife. Some readers complain that nothing happens in this story, but there's some great tension in the way Hemingway describes many small details of Nick's fishing trip as he recovers from some unspecified traumatic experience, probably the war.
