Full of adventure--from New Jersey to Alaska--and hilarious misadventures, Fish On, Fish Off is a treat all fly fishers will love."--Nick Lyons, author of Fishing Stories, Spring Creek, and Bright Rivers"Stephen Sautner's Fish On, Fish Off has everything you'd want to find in a book about the outdoors: adventure, humor, pathos, suffering, triumph, and plenty of fish.

This book of essays proves once and for all that poetry is as much a part of fishing as a rod and reel."-- Steven Rinella, author of The Scavenger's Guide to Haute Cuisine, American Buffalo: In Search of a Lost Icon, and Meat Eater: Adventures from the Life of an American Hunter. "These travels with a fishing rod reveal a whole new dimension to the world.
