Most of my fly fishing books are purchased because of their historical reputation or from the hype surrounding their release. Every once in a while, a book falls into my hands with no fanfare whatsoever. In the case of John Inglis Hall’s Fishing a Highland Stream, the lack of fanfare at its acquisition has been made up for in the subsequent years.

Not only was this surprise, last minute purchase a good book: it was the perfect book to bring on the plane for a long flight.

Today I share why Fishing a Highland Stream is worth reading. In doing so, I also discuss why it is the perfect “vacation book,” “airplane book,” or “I need something that will hold my attention for a few hours” book.

Watch what else I have to say about the book, and find out where you can pick it up, below:

You might find Fishing A Highland Stream at your local used bookstore. Or, of course, you can get it here.
