He writes with a light touch and a sense of humour, using anecdotes and personal experience to lovingly bring his topic to life. . . . This book is primarily aimed at anglers who are curious about the finned creatures in the waters they fish, or who dream of fishing. It's also for anyone who ever peered into a clear stream or lake, saw a fish swimming by, and wondered, 'What the heck was that beautiful thing? '" -Mark Hume, Vancouver Sun [496-noto] .
