IN this collection of short stories, the author covers a range of subjects, including the importance of listening to dead men, which hat to wear in the rain, why fly fishing in March is like shooting arrows at a Welshman and of course, why this fly might be better than that one. And in keeping with the best angling writing, most of the stories presented here aren't really about fishing at all. Philip is the author of the bestselling Complete Bad Angler, Year of the Spider and Cooking for Dads
