Book excerpt: The legendary British fisherman reflects on a year of contemplative observation, stirring memory, and good fishing in this delightful memoir. British journalist Chris Yates became an angling legend when he caught what was, in 1980, the biggest fish in English fishing history. How to Fish is Yate’s unabashed, unashamed celebration of the joys of fishing—an activity he believes mankind was born to pursue. Written in prose that is both lyrical and accessible, the book is about contentment, calm and solitude, rivers and riverbanks, losing track of time and, of course, the fish themselves. For those who already enjoy fishing it is a love letter to their art and for those who don’t—yet!—it is an insight into a life spent getting up at the crack of dawn and, armed with rod and line, heading for water.
