Gone Fishing

Mr.Rashid has captured the true essence of the wonderful Wisconsin waters and the serene sport of fishing. What a beautiful and flowing account of the love many of us have for angling activities. Through his lens and brief but appropriate text, Bob has illustrated an everlasting tradition so superbly. I thank him for the memories.Gwenyth Ann Reilly Sisson

Wisconsin has long been a land of streams, ponds and lakes suitable for fly fishing and the angler's art. In Gone Fishing, photographer Bob Rashid has wonderfully captured and preserved in vivid imagery the pleasures and adventures of men, women and children fishing Wisconsin waters from spearing sturgeon through the ice on Lake Winnebago to pursuing the wily muskie on a quiet night in Vilas County, to trout fishing a farm field stream. Here are memorable scenes of Wisconsin's fishing traditions including fish fries and catfish queens. With Rashid's reader friendly text accompanying his outstanding photography, Gone Fishing is a "must" for anyone who ever picked up rod and reel or tried their luck at spearing in Wisconsin's bountiful waters.
