About this book
Winter plans for a fishing trip become an absorbing occupation for Eddie and his companion in this first-person camping narrative. Eddie proposes a route through the lakes and rivers of Nova Scotia, then turns preparations into months of shopping, maps and equipment lists. His enthusiasm for trout flies and woodland comforts gives the opening its comic rhythm, while the narrator records both his friend's expertise and his own small rebellions over the choice of tackle.
Once the pair are camping, Albert Bigelow Paine gives close attention to the practical business of sharing a tent, drying wet clothes and keeping good temper through bad weather. A stay beside the Shelburne River brings canoe repairs and busy hours of fishing between Irving and Sand lakes.
