A Fish for All Seasons

Author Martin Bowler invites you to join him as he takes you through, not only his personal voyage, but that of the British countryside and the wonderful fish that inhabit its rich waters.

From carp to conger eels and onto salmon, few have experienced so much.

Over 30 years ago a jam jar, net and shoal of sticklebacks were enough to ignite a passion that would last a lifetime.

The boy who spent all day paddling in a stream could never have imagined where this adventure would take him.

Record breaking fish, a professional angler, Angling times columnist and television shows all lay in store, although best of all his love for the greatest field sport would burn as fiercely as the first day a fish found its way into the palm of his hand, opening a door to a world full of wonder and joy.

Allow "A Fish For All Seasons" to help you celebrate Britain's unique and magnificent environment as well as come to understand a little better the angler Martin Bowler.
