Testament of a Trout Fisher

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
