A hawk, blown far offshore and lost in thick fog, finds respite on a tuna fishing boat. A new deckhand's mind is blown trying to escape a night-time collision with a huge ship. The joy of encounters with porpoises and salmon; the downsides of fish farms and corporate factory fishing; all these topics and more are set to a rolling rhyme and rhythm that's permeated the author's mind over twenty years of fishing along the North Pacific coast.
