In this book David Carroll leads readers through the yearly cycle of the trout in a richly detailed and enchanting journal of a trout fisherman, introducing us along the way to the myriad flora and fauna that inhabit the trout's watery and exquisite world.
"With Carroll as our guide, we glimpse breathtaking cold-water trout beneath the crystalline surface of a January pond, we experience the thrill of fishing for wild trout on opening day, and witness the great thaw of spring that brings the hatchlings of new trout and the resurfacing of a spectacular 'living tide;' we observe the striking beauty and grace of a quicksilver trout in a world that glimmers with sightings of wood turtles and dancing mayflies; we marvel at the trout's ritual behavior that marks the end of the year for both fisherman and trout."
