Description
An entertaining and evocative account of trout fishing that will be recognised and enjoyed by keen anglers everywhere.
From a childhood spent in the rugged back-blocks of western Southland, Murray Rodgers’ journey has taken him into the remote river valleys of Fiordland, the Nelson Lakes region, parts of Westland, and to the tussock-land rivers and streams of the Canterbury high country.
Dry-fly and nymph fishing for the large, fiesty, back- country brown and rainbow trout is close to the author’s heart; so too is an ever-present desire to seek out the experiences offered by the majestic wilderness areas that are part of the South Island of New Zealand. Friends who joined him on these expeditions contribute in large measure to the fun and humour – in learning to fish, and coping with the special challenges of the back country.
Softcover. 140 pages.
In good to very good preloved condition, with the exception of a crease to the front cover.
