Riassunto

This is just the story of some rods, and the places they take you to. It begins with surf-casting on the New Jersey coast, when I was 13, and carries on to such scenes as flyfishing the headwaters of the Kuban in the upper Caucasus, and casting for rainbow trout in the rivers of southern Chile, with a volcano erupting every ten minutes within plain view. There is not a record, or even a very big, fish in it; and some of the finest things fishing has given me I have found beside the steams of the West Country in England. Chiefly, I love my rods because of their associations, the places they have brought me to. They have been part of my kit, when I travel, for many years. This magic wand has revealed to me some of the loveliest places on earth. That is the story of this book.

Loch fishing is vastly different from fishing the crystal-clear waters of British Columbia. It does not pay to strike loch trout; it is better to let them do the striking. It is a tantalising performance, and a man does just as well to restrain himself for the fraction of a second until he feels that tiny touch
