Two things be be considered if like me you are a fan.
His latest book “All the time in the world” is well worth a read, it’s up there with anything he has done previously and if you haven’t already have a listen to Pete Tyjas brilliant pod cast talking to JG. One of Petes best.

Many thanks for the kind words Terry, it was quite a coup to get him to appear and to talk with him. We spoke for quite a while before and after the recording and he was on really good form.
I am enjoying the book too. I ration myself a chapter every few days!

I am a beginner and found certain books a godsend in helping me learn. Some books capture the essence of it all and give you a real sense of what its all about. I will get hold of this book and have a read. I have fished five times so far. I have had trout take the fly off the surface, but as yet drag and excitement have hindered me actually landing one lol

He has written a number of books and if you can track his first book, Trout Bum, down it is the perfect place to start. |
