Why Trout Usually Win – the Guides' Book of Fishing Excuses
Halcyon Press and Paper Plus are pleased to launch this exciting new book by Pleasant Point author Graeme Marshall at Timaru Library on Wednesday 4th December at 7pm.
In places tongue and cheek and light-hearted, this is ultimately a serious look at many of the problems encountered by the experienced angler.
Come along to the author's presentation and learn the answers to all your fishy questions. Signed copies of the book will be available for sale.
All welcome!
