Skyhorse Publishing is proud to publish a broad range of books for fishermen. Our books for anglers include titles that focus on fly fishing, bait fishing, fly-casting, spin casting, deep sea fishing, and surf fishing. Our books offer both practical advice on tackle, techniques, knots, and more, as well as lyrical prose on fishing for bass, trout, salmon, crappie, baitfish, catfish, and more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to publishing books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked by other publishers and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Fishless Days, Angling Nights is a rich and varied treasury of superb stories and articles by the acknowledged "Dean of American Fly Fishermen." It memorably records the perils and rewards, the delights and disappointments of a lifetime of sporting days and nights on the stream. There is lighthearted philosophy and profound insight into the character of fishermen and campers. There are hilarious pieces and starkly vivid recollections of the terrors of night fishing. Famous fly-fishing stories are here, along with warm memories of chance meetings along the stream and moving reminiscences of such famed anglers as Edward R. Hewitt and George M.L. LaBranche and there are practical and provocative articles. Fishless Days, Angling Nights is a book not only for angling enthusiasts but for anyone interested in the very finest writing about the outdoors. (6 x 9, 224 pages, b&w photos)
