By Malachy Tallack, popped through my letter box this week. It’s about the Nature, memory and delights of a fishing life.
I wondered if anyone has read it?

Re: Illuminated by Water
I’m in the middle of listening to this book:- (Audible edition). It’s very interesting to begin with, but loses me when Tallock goes deeply into Animal Rights activists.
Oh to be at my “Happy Place” where nothing matters but the being there.

Re: Illuminated by Water
I've just downloaded the Kindle sample as it sounds interesting. I'll let you know if I progress to the whole thing and what I think of it if I do.

I suspect it could be “love”, despite its drawbacks in the rhyming department.

Re: Illuminated by Water
I think the introduction and the first chapter give one of the best accounts I've read of why we fish.
