These stories are a bumper catch for any angler, catching the spirit of the sport. They span the twentieth century and are written by the some of the most eminent short story writers and novelists of the century. From comic favourites to the dark plots of Stephen King and the contemporary descriptions of E.Annie Proulx, while P.J O'Rourke contributes a tale of the absurd side of the sport in 'Fly-Fishing. There are fishing adventures and passion, with surprise endings, friendships between young and old, and romance in unexpected places. Every type of angler is here, from a solitary fisherman casting in a fast trout stream to a couple of kids with bamboo poles.
