Shadows on the Stream Bed

Shadows on the Stream Bed by Tom Sutcliffe (Platanna Press, 2009) 383 pages with 40 pen and ink drawings.

Says Ed Herbst: It is said that just as few Parisians have climbed to the top of the Eiffel Tower so have the majority of Capetonians not taken the cable car to the summit of Table Mountain. Those who live in the beautiful pastoral landscape of the Eastern Cape Drakensberg are probably just as guilty of taking their surroundings for granted but, for dedicated fly fishers around the country, the dream of an annual pilgrimage to fish these rivers and streams is what sustains us through the heat and haze, the hustle and bustle of city life.

And there is no more dedicated pilgrim to this area than Tom Sutcliffe's book,ย Shadows on the Stream Bed. In it Tom covers the wide landscapes of fishing from Lady Grey to Barkly East, Rhodes, Maclear, Ugie and Dordrecht."
