Biographical / Historical
The Great Angling Lesbian Society was a club established in the 1990s in which Lesbian members would travel around the US and Canada, often to national parks, on fishing trips together. In 1995 they stated in one of their newsletters that they “[were] going to be famous someday” and that “Gerber/Hart [would] be clamoring for [their] stuff.”
