The Second Fly Caster: Opinions Please On Description

Here's a draft of a description of my estory. Any opinions?

Thanks,

Randy

Erik, a young boy, is proud that his father, the winner of several state championships, is probably the greatest long distance fly caster on earth, but then an old stranger proclaims that someone he knows, a Shane Riley, is the greatest fly caster and will the next tournament.

Scared that the stranger might be telling the truth, Erik anxiously awaits the day of the tournament. Finally it arrives, but then events take an unexpected turn that leaves Erik full of unanswered questions, questions that linger and then, years later, deepen when Erik’s idealistic plans and actions are crushed by a horrific reality.

And so, Erik follows in his father’s footsteps and becomes an alcoholic.

He struggles, unsuccessfully, to become sober, until, almost by accident, he comes to see his father and fly casting in a different light. Finally, Erik is able to overcome his demons.
