A biography of Willis K. "Chip" Stauffer. Born in 1905, Chip spend much of his life fishing with dozens of the most noted American fly-fishermen including Jim Leisenring, Preston Jennings, Herman Christian, Edward Hewitt, Art Flick, Dana Lamb, Jack Atherton, Charles DeFeo, Sparse Gray Hackle and numerous others. He was a revered member at the Anglers Club of New York and his name appears in more than dozen major books on fly fishing including works by Jennings, Flick, Schwiebert, Lamb, Talleur and Schmookler. Together with Preston Jennnings, Stauffer smuggled Old English Gamecock eggs into the U.S. in the 1930s and established one of the first successful hackle farms for fly tying materials, decades before the rise of the modern commerical operations of today.Chip's life story was interwoven with personal triumph, tragedy and re-birth, each event and activity somehow circling back to his life as an angler, whilst finding strength and healing in the waters he waded. A true American story told here in the form of his own album, photographs and letters as well as the memories shared by a few of his closest friends. The ultimate fly fisher's life, experienced by the most humble of men.

H.T. Sheringham ranks among the finest fishing writers of the twentieth century. Here is a collection of the very best of his angling experiences, taken mainly form his six fishing books and from The Field, for which he was Angling Editor. No fish escaped his interest, even if it did sometimes escape his creel - carp, tench, chub, pike, roach, salmon and trout all were pursued with equal gusto. He takes the reader on a journey without frontiers, from the reservoirs (Blagdon in its opening years) to the finest chalkstreams in England, from overgrown canals to Welsh salmon rivers. No snob, he knew only the joy of the sport. He is funny, he is moving and - most rare - he is modest about his all-round skills with rod and line. If you are new to Sheringham, An Angler for all Seasons will surely convert you into one of his many admirers. The essays in this anthology have been chosen and introduced by Tom Fort, former Angling Correspondent of the Financial Times.
