About this title

Synopsis

Our most profound lessons, first learned in childhood, must be relearned again and again throughout life. We know the fundamental principles all too well: fairness, honesty, optimism and love, to name a few. But in the wake of the daily grind, we forget. The universal human dilemma is this: Perspective is the perishable commodity.

Fishing restores perspective. When we escape to the solitude of quiet waters, the day's fleeting troubles seem to evaporate into the mist; in the presence of Nature, spiritual order is restored.

The observant angler has many lessons to learn, and this book addresses a few of them. Utilizing the words of renowned fishermen, writers and philosophers, each principle is examined in light of its application to fishing and, more importantly, its application to life.
