Trout Fishing In The High Country
This book is the diary of a season's fishing in the streams within reach of Tumut. It gives a tug for tug, wind by wind description of all the encounters between fish and fisherman. The author has won over 100 of the contests, but admits that some of the best fish beat him. He uses artificial lures and natural bait. This book will interest the proficient fisherman; educate the would-be fisherman; and prompt the hopeless fisherman to try again. The wife of any fisherman should buy it as a see-what-someone-else-can-do present.
It is full of information on outwitting, cooking and smoking trout. The maps of fishing spots take you to interesting places: Profanity Hole, Island Willow and Heart Attack Hole all give the book a flavour of its own. Smoked trout perhaps?
