Produktbeschreibung
Laurence Catlow's long-awaited new book is one of the most candid and eloquent fishing memoirs ever written. This is Laurence's unusual fishing autobiography in which he talks openly about how, as a young man, his excessive drinking brought him to an important turning point in his fishing life. This is elegantly interwoven around his lively views on the northern upstream tradition, catch-and-release, worming and other topics. In the second part of the book, Laurence embarks on what he expects to be an idyllic time as he takes early retirement and looks forward to even more shooting and fishing -- when a personal crisis plunges him into a nervous breakdown. This frank exploration of how fishing became impossible to contemplate during the darkest days but how it went on to form an essential part of eventual recovery, is a new departure in angling literature and will strike a chord with many readers

Autorenporträt
Laurence Catlow taught classics at Sedbergh School in Cumbria. He also writes for various magazines, including Trout & Salmon and Shooting Times. He fishes on the Wharfe, the Eden, Driffield Beck and on the small upland brook that runs through his land. With equal enthusiasm, he also shoots pheasant and wildfowl, accompanied by friends and his gundogs. Other pleasures include food, wine, ornithology, religion and the obscure sport of fives.
