Waterlust by Robert Olsen

Post by Troydog »

Wild winds, crazy river and more heavy rain - it’s time to read again the magnificent Waterlust, by Robert Olsen. Just another absolute treasure of a book introduced to me by the good offices of the Traditional Fisherman’s Forum.
Trouble is, the fish just don't read the books......

Completely agree - a great read, as was Rob Olsen’s previous - Tom’s Book ✅👍
It's not just about the fish, if waters are calm or rough, even if the net stays dry, just being there's enough.

Rob Olsen is a very talented author and angler…. I like his style very much and rather hope that there will be a third book in the offing….

Waterlust is still available here:

Tom’s Book in hardback is difficult to track down but they do come up. Please don’t purchase the soft back new (because it was published without permission and the author wasn’t paid!).
