Waterlust by Robert Olsen
Wild winds, crazy river and more heavy rain - it’s time to read again the magnificent Waterlust, by Robert Olsen. Just another absolute treasure of a book introduced to me by the good offices of the Traditional Fisherman’s Forum.
Trouble is, the fish just don't read the books......

Re: Waterlust by Robert Olsen
Completely agree - a great read, as was Rob Olsen’s previous - Tom’s Book
It's not just about the fish, if waters are calm or rough, even if the net stays dry, just being there's enough.

Re: Waterlust by Robert Olsen
Rob Olsen is a very talented author and angler…. I like his style very much and rather hope that there will be a third book in the offing….

Re: Waterlust by Robert Olsen
Waterlust is still available here:
https://www.harperanglingbooks.co.uk/pr ... h-edition/
Tom’s Book in hardback is difficult to track down but they do come up. Please don’t purchase the soft back new (because it was published without permission and the author wasn’t paid!).
