A lyrical memoir about fishing, love and loss from the UK's best-known female anglerIn her early twenties, drifting and directionless, Marina Gibson fled the city for the countryside, and picked up a fishing rod for the first time in years. She was returning to a childhood pursuit and a passion passed on by her mother. Fishing overtook Marina's life as she grew enraptured by the quiet magic of angling and the silent mysteries of the river. The complexity of fly fishing, the ritual of casting and the music of the waterways provided her refuge from a failing marriage, a source of serenity, and a connection to the tradition of female anglers stretching back generations. Gibson traces the epic, continent-traversing journeys of migratory fish, the lifelong quest of the angler, and how these two paths meet on lakes and riverbanks the world over. Cast Catch Released is a love letter to fishing that shows what it means to find peace and purpose standing waist-deep in water.
