Full Description
Laurence Catlow is considered one of the finest classical flyfishing writers of our times and here he explores the themes close to an angler's heart:
* why catching two trout each time matters so much to him
* the experience of fishing in contrast to a day's shooting
* the melancholy appeal of autumn fishing
* the difference between holiday fishing and home fishing
* the secrets of a flytyer
* starting the season on the river
* big trout or little trout: why he prefers the latter
* why fishing is a lifelong joy
* fishing the mayfly
'The best flyfishing book to cross my desk this year, without a doubt. Catlow's writing is easily accessible, simple English fused into passages that flow like a chalkstream glide, littered with lines that sit in the memory long after their page has turned.' Trout Fisherman, Jeffrey Prest, 4 January
