Sports and Hobbies

Fishing - we do it in ponds, creeks, great rivers, the deep sea. Some fall under the spell of the chase, some spend a lifetime trying to tie the perfect fly, some just like sitting on the pier for hours. These are tales of the fishing adventures and misadventures of amateurs and pros, one-time anglers, families and friends, in the stunning landscape of Australia. Stories, pictures and hilarious anecdotes from folk across the country, including fishing royalty Vicki Lear; Philip Weigall ; Steve Starling; Greg French, writers Hilary McPhee; Krissy Kneen ; Vicki Hastrich ; Angela Pippos and many more amateur enthusiasts. This is the second in the It Happened series, following the hugely popular It Happened in a Holden.
