Is an extraordinary book. If you love fishing stories, this is a ‘must have’ book….

Agreed Tim, that and Tom's Book, his first effort, are extraordinarily good.

Waterlust sounds like a ‘must-have’.
I have Tom’s Book and it is wonderful. Beautiful sketches and an excellent read.
Another Robert Olsen book definitely needs to be added to the ‘wanted’ list.
It's not just about the fish, if waters are calm or rough, even if the net stays dry, just being there's enough.

It took me a while but received the book for my birthday earlier this month - you’re not wrong, it’s excellent in content, quality and presentation ✅✅✅

Thank you Carl, Waterlust really is a fabulous book. I’ve found some wonderful fishing book via TFF….
