Fish
Of My Years
by John N. Cole
The memories of a lifetime
told through the various fishes the author has encountered during his
unusual, eccentric and eventful journey. The author has lived the kind
of angling life we all at times might aspire to – and has
survived!
This is John Cole at his
best - great humor, insight, irreverence for all things that get in his
way of fishing; the deepest reverence for the fish themselves. A
delight.

Reviews
Bill Trego's Meadow Run Press continues to produce books that are not
only elegant but also fresh and well written. I'm not sure I've read
anyone [Cole] so in love with fish and fishing, so willing to try and
try again if only he can see, feel touch fish.
But hey, would we want a
fishing writer to be blase, smug, contented, bored by fish? Hell
no! John Cole articulates a fishing life we all would love to have
lived. As he says, most acutely: "If you are unbalanced enough, you
can live your dreams. The problem with most folks is the mature
restraint they exercise whenever their dreams come close to taking over
their lives."
