Publisher's summary

Christmas Island. The Russian Arctic. Argentine Patagonia. Japan. Cuba. British Columbia.

Dylan Tomine takes us to the far reaches of the planet in search of fish and adventure, with keen insight, a strong stomach, and plenty of laughs along the way. Closer to home, he wades deeper into his beloved steelhead rivers of the Pacific Northwest and the politics of saving them. Tomine celebrates the joy - and pain - of exploration, fatherhood, and the comforts of home waters from a vantage point well off the beaten path. Headwaters traces the evolution of a lifelong angler’s priorities from fishing to the survival of the fish themselves. It is a book of remarkable obsession, environmental awareness shaped by experience, and hope for the future.

Held my interest

I’m not a fly fisherman nor do I plan to be, but I appreciated the quality writing and well placed humor. The book also educated me on conservation problems of which I was not aware.

I’m not a fisher person, but

this book is amazing - an extraordinary lens for seeing the beauty of the natural world and a powerful message about what must be done to preserve it. I don’t think I’ll take up fishing, but definitely will join the fight for conservation. Thank you, Dylan, for the inspiration and education!

Beautiful essays on fishing, conservation and humanity

Can’t recommend this book enough - whether you fish or don’t fish. These are deeper musings and meditations of the world, humanity and our place in nature. Also deep insights into what it means to care, love and grow as humans.
