Of all of life�s companionable activities, there�s nothing like fly fishing to cement new friendships or renew old ones. In Friends on the Water, internationally acclaimed fly-fishing photographer Val Atkinson captures the experiences of camaraderie and communion that seem always to happen when good friends travel together to fly-fishing�s wondrous kingdom.

Atkinson�s evocative images record the many moments that build and bind relationships�moments that angling companions remember for a lifetime. Longtime and newfound friends, husbands and wives, fathers with their sons and daughters�all the permutations of human bonding are to be found in this wonderful book�s pages. And it�s not just person-to-person relationships that Atkinson cares about; there�s a special place in his heart for the friendship between a fisherman and his dog.

Friends on the Water assembles the photos that, in his words, best illustrate Atkinson�s enthusiasm for wild and romantic places, and for the family, friends, and acquaintances with whom he has enjoyed them. Complementing the book�s beautiful pictures are quotes, essays, and stories from famous angler-writers including Ernest Schweibert, Nick Lyons, Zane Grey, Tom McGuane, and Margot Page. This year, there�s no better Father�s Day or birthday gift for the fly-fishing companion in your life.
