The Magic Hour

by John Giacon

(Synopsis) The MAGIC HOUR is all about fly fishing, with the emphasis on 'all'.John Giacon, prolific magazine writer and one of our great fisherman raconteurs, has shared a lifetime's experience in the sport in one of the most charming and illuminating fishing books of recent years. The 'Brotherhood of the Angle' is alive and well in his book, and readers will chuckle as they join high-jinks and mateship along the highs and lows of a fly fishing journey. At the same time, without trying to be an instruction manual, the book has a wealth of sound advice on gear, techniques, locations and how to fly-fish them - in saltwater as well as freshwater. Safety aspects are discussed, along with conservation, habitat enhancement and the catch and release ethic.
