Summary

Fishermen are born storytellers. Almost immediately after securing the catch, fishermen begin to craft and polish their success story for its debut. But, for as much as they love telling their own stories, they love hearing others’ favorite true-life tales. From Field and Stream magazine’s Deputy Editor, Colin Kearns and fishermen everywhere, comes The World’s Best Fishing Stories.

Anyone who appreciates a good story can appreciate the infinite resource that is the sport of fishing. These stories have been collected and shared throughout the 120-year history of the magazine, from writers old and new, with tales infamous and unknown. The best true-life fishing tales about big catches, bright seas, and the respect that nature commands.

A fishing story is, in the end, not about catching fish. What matters is the quest, the company and the challenge. This collection stories from the likes of John Updike, Bill Heavey, Zane Gray, Eddie Nickens, Ian Frazier, Kim Barnes, and Thomas McGuane, is one you don’t want to miss!
