Not your typical fishing book! Miller explores fishing in places most people have never tried, or even thought of. From catching fish in a garbage filled, toxic drainage ditch to fishing for salmon in Alaska, he tries it all. Golden trout, ciscos, suckers, gars, eels, sturgeon, every species you can imagine. Even exploring a type of fishing that I had never heard of, "microfishing", or fishing for tiny, tiny little minnow like fish.
I think that Miller's point is that, wherever there are fish, people will fish for them. And if it gets too expensive to fish for the well-known "trophy" species, or they become too rare, or places get too crowded, people will find another species. His quote from Chief Sitting Bull summed it up nicely, "When the buffalo are gone, we will hunt mice, for we are hunters and we want our freedom:".
This was a fun read, reminding me that the fun is in the act of fishing, rather than the pursuit of bigger or more fish.
