Review (PDF) Chicken Soup For The Fisherman's Soul: Fish Tales To Hook Your Spirit And Snag Your Funny Bone (Chicken Soup For The Soul)
More than fish tales in this delightful book, readers will discover stories about the special relationships that develop through fishing-between parents and children, between friends and lovers, between fisherman, nature, and the elusive fish. Fishing is a common thread in many lives, and this book shows the strength and importance of those threads-whether your passion is fly-fishing, bass fishing, deepwater fishing, or just casting a line on a hot summer day. Chapters include: First Cast, Small Fries, The One That Got Away and Hooked For Love.

great stories, remind you of all of your past fishing adventures... also a life lesson or two mixed inwarning - it will make you want to get out on the water, make sure you have a trip planned before reading this book
From the day my Dad first took me fishing to that first really huge catch that somehow transformed me from a wannabe to a real live honest to god fisherman. A great gift for those who fish, used to fish, or plan to take it up.
This is a great read for anyone who responds to the human condition, set in the context of fishing. The huge collection of bite-sized essays will take you from tears to laughter. The stories from well known people will show sides of them you probably didn't know. The stories by less well known writers will endear you to them as new friends. I have enjoyed this book from cover to cover and return to many stories again and again. I have only put the book down to reach for my fishing rod! When I'm done with the day's fishing, I'm ready to "Play it again, Sam"
I was asked to read a fishing story submitted by a friend. I chuckled at the story and started browsing through the book looking for other stories to read. Before I knew it, I had read almost half the book. The fishing stories were not only funny and sometimes emotional, but it brought back childhood memories of when my family would go camping and fish all day long. I love books that can draw any one person into a topic that you may or may not be interested in and keep your interest, and this book does just that!
Anyone who fishes, has ever fished or knows someone who has ever fished will enjoy these stories. They are fun, funny, heartwarming and overall, simply enjoyable. As a new mom, it is nice to be able to read one short story at a time from start to finish, smile inside and feel like I left my hectic day for just a minute. A MUST for that Dad who has everything for Fathers Day!
Young or old, large or small, male or female, this is a book that will please, delight, and inspire anyone who has ever baited a hook in anticipation of catching that lunker whether in fresh or salt water.Some stories made me howl with laughter, and a few caused tears, but all are uplifting and made me want to read more.
If you like to fish, this is a book you'll want to savor slowly so it'll last longer. Do what I did: Read one story every night for the next 87 days. You'll crack up, connect with, cry over, delight in, and feast upon a smorgasbord of stories about fishing that will make you impatient for the second serving.
Well done short stories that do make you laugh and cry. Soothing, yet inspiring. More than one of the stories took me back to a time in my life.
