TROUT MAGIC is a warm and maverick look at trout fishing and its attendant lore. Robert Traver tells of a mysterious dancing fly, speaks pointedly about kiss-and-tell fishermen, debunks fly enthusiasts as the world's greatest snobs, and lets us in on the fishing story Life magazine missed."There's enough trout magic here to rub off on every reader -- man, woman or child -- as Robert Traver weaves his inimitable spell. TROUT MAGIC is a great catch..." (Publisher's Source)A retired justice of the Michigan Supreme Court, Traver has also written ANATOMY OF A MURDER, TROUT MADNESS, LAUGHING WHITEFISH and THE PEOPLE VERSUS KIRK.

In Trout Madness, Robert Traver covers the whole range of the trout fishing season, from The First Day ("Entire expedition got half shot and retired in vast disorder") to The Last Day ("Only eight more months to the magic first day"). There are hilarious stories, and stories that have an undercurrent of deep emotion. Each carries Traver's special brand of oblique humor and canniness.
