A fisherman can wake at four in the morning, drive across three counties, transport enough equipment to support a minor military operation, spend twelve hours being completely ignored by nature... ...and still return home saying: Actually, it wasn't a bad session. The Hilarious Guide to Fishing is a sharp, affectionate and satirical look at the world of fishing - where blank sessions count as research, escaped fish grow larger with every retelling, and every new rod is completely different from the nearly identical rods already filling the garage. Inside you'll discover: - How tackle shops turn a six-pound packet of hooks into a major financial event.
- Why the weather is always responsible, whatever the weather actually did.
- How fish finders use advanced technology to make disappointment more accurate.
- Why fishermen spend hundreds trying to outthink animals that eat sweetcorn.
- How twelve fishless hours can still be described as promising.
- Why I've had it for ages convinces absolutely nobody. Whether you fish for carp, cast flies, throw lures, head out to sea or simply own enough tackle to open a small shop, this book will feel uncomfortably familiar. Perfect for fishermen, anglers, fishing enthusiasts and the long-suffering families who have already heard why this rod is different. A funny fishing gift for dads, husbands, grandads, friends and anyone who understands that fishing is not really about catching fish.
Fortunately.
