Summary

Let Philip Weigall transport you to your favourite river with this beautifully illustrated tribute to the art of flyfishing. In Fishing Season, acclaimed author Philip Weigall deftly captures all that makes the wonderful sport of flyfishing a passion for so many. It is a reflective book, an engrossing read that captures the heart and soul of this pastime that is so full of challenges, victories, disappointments, frustrations but, most of all, quiet happiness. So join Philip as he takes you through a year in the life of a flyfisher and ponders such important questions as why an organised fly box is rarer than a 10-pound trout or why you should think carefully before offering to net someone else's fish!
