'Though there is a chapter about swordfish in this book, another about snapper, and even a piece about pig hunting,' wrote Douglas Stewart, '[this] is mostly a book about trout-fishing. I wrote it simply for the pleasure of going fishing again in retrospect along my favourite rivers.'

Douglas Stewart loved fishing, but it was the wiley trout that haunted his dreams. Bringing a poet's eye, a sense of whimsy and a generosity of spirit to this classic and celebratory account of fly-fishing in Australia and New Zealand, Stewart proves that even the ones that got away are worth writing about.
