Hunting Trout by Tom Sutcliffe Back by popular demand, if you do not yet have a copy of Hunting Trout – Angles and anecdotes on trout fishing, this - the third edition of Tom Sutcliffe’s classic, published by Burnett Media with forewords by Nick Lyons and Stephen Boshoff, new illustrations, a new cover shot by Gerhard Loubscher and a new preface from Tom - is one for the collection. Hunting Trout is informative, entertaining story-telling at its best and you will come away from this book wiser, better informed and motivated to make your own stories. There’s a reason Tom is compared to the great fly fishing writers and personalities of the UK, US and elsewhere, but we should hold him in higher regard because he is ours and the places he writes about are mostly our own too. -

Our Issue 37 cover is a special one so we turned it into a limited run of 14 fine art prints. Designed by Simon Berndt of One Horse Town (who usually spends his time making psychedelic rock posters), it connects to the cover story about Tanzania's Majestic Rivers and features a Tanzanian tigerfish, a hippo, a plane, an Egyptian Spitting Cobra, and the aforementioned rivers. Think Willard Price meets the Hardy Boys and Tintin over a fly fishing backdrop. Each A3 print is printed on Hahnemuhle acid free cotton paper using archival inks and signed by Simon Berndt.

When ‘The Rapture of the River’ was originally published in 1957, the first and only edition sold out within days and soon became South Africa’s most in-demand fly fishing book ever – attaining classic status within a couple of years. Today the book is so sought after that rare, surviving copies of Sydney Hey’s great masterpiece change hands between R1000 – R2000. Now at last, and at a fraction of the cost, you can revel in this remarkable autobiography of a fly fisherman and his fascinating recollections of halcyon days gone by. And you can fish virgin trout waters with him in the kind of unspoilt surroundings we can only dream about today. -
