You say you've never cast a line, can't tell a spinning-rod from a tackle-box, and could care less? Well you're still going to enjoy this light hearted look at the human condition, as seen in the weird and wonderful world of fishing. Naturally, if you're already hooked on the sport, you'll want to settle down some blizzardly winter night and read your quota. But if you hold yourself aloof from "the ridiculous past-time" you'll still enjoy John Craig's hilarious collection of stories full of the foibles, foolishness, strengths and resources that only show up when you plunk people down on a lake or a river or a stream. As every real fisherman knows, it's not netting a bass or a pike that counts, but the companionship, the laughs, the human revelations. And this is a book well-stocked with all those qualities.
John Craig is a top-flight Canadian writer, author of sixteen books (juvenile, fiction, and non-fiction), plus countless magazine articles, and movie and television scripts.Ā
