Prosek writes a travelogue of his search for the diverse trout along the 41st parallel. The book is engaging and interesting, though not overwhelmingly so. Instead it is a gentle brook of a love story between this young author and the fish he so deeply respects.

As a travelogue it is a bit foggy, not very adventurous even when I n adventurous lands. However the story hangs together well and I will Reese more from this author - and it has inspired me to take my fly kit out on the local rivers also.
