Trout Magic

Trout Magic is a warm, joyous, and maverick look at trout fishing and its attendant tall tales, strange happenings, and all-around fishing lore.

Author Robert Traver recounts the story of a mysterious "dancing fly," speaks pointedly about "kiss-and-tell" fishermen, debunks fly fishermen as the "world's greatest snobs," lets us in on the fishing story Life missed, and takes us along on his strangest fishing trip.
