Where the Gulls Are

- Fishing with Joe

Bag om Where the Gulls Are

Strap on your life jacket, and pack your rain gear. You're going Fishing with Joe. Joe probably never won a fishing tournament, or held a world record. That's not why Joe fishes. This is a very extraordinary book about fishing because it's about very ordinary Joe, his adventures, misjudgments, mistakes, errors, and occasional triumphs. This is not a how-to book, but even veteran anglers will learn something from Joe. Non-anglers will be intrigued by Joe, and by this infectious madness called fishing. There may even be some life-lessons. But learning is not the primary intent. Both will laugh at Joe, and with Joe. It's a fun read! You'll meet some characters, not just colorful - vivid. The narrative spans over seventy years and much of the continent, including three different North American countries, and even one foray into the jungles of Malaysia. And, unlike most fishing tales, it is meticulously factual: exactly as it happened, white-knuckle moments, and moments of supreme tranquility alike. Who is Joe? He is certainly someone you know........maybe you!
