The Compleat Angler in Tasmania
The Compleat Angler In Tasmania is a book fly fishers will read and then give to others to show them why fly fishers are so passionate about an art and relaxation called fly fishing. This book is philosophical in tone. It is not about being an expert fly fisher, but about being an exemplary fly fisher. It is not of how to fish, but of why to fish. Fly fishing is about being one with, and appreciating, environment. Fly fishing should make one a better person. The book is set in a conversational, celebratory mood like The Compleat Angler. It is a chronicle of a fly fishing season in Tasmanias central highlands. It is set in the context of the thoughts of Isaak Walton. Keith owned a highland shack, and for ten years spent time each fortnight in the highlands. This book gives accounts not just about a years fishing, but also of the changing seasons and delights of highland life.
