Trout School: Lessons from a Fly-Fishing Master
by Mark Hume, with Mo Bradley (Greystone Books, 2019)
Among fly-fishers, the Kamloops region in British Columbia’s Thompson-Okanagan is known as one of the best places in the world for catching trout. It owes its reputation in part to Mo Bradley, a master angler known as a pioneer of fly-fishing culture. In , award-winning author and environmental journalistillustrates these lessons with stories about Hume’s own times on the water—with Bradley, by himself or teaching his own young daughters to fish. Illustrated with paintings by B.C. artist Nana Cook, the result is both a thoughtful tribute to a fly-fishing legend and an invaluable resource for experienced anglers and novices alike.
