Lifelong Pleasure – Seventy Years of Fly Fishing | John Brookes | 2004 | Limited Edition 37/150 | Foreword by David Scholes [USED – HC – Out of Print]

John Brookes's account of seventy years of fly fishing, with a particular focus on the Central Highlands of Tasmania — the Shannon Lagoon, Great Lake, Miena and the surrounding high country waters that defined his fishing life.

The foreword is by David Scholes — Tasmania's most celebrated fly fishing writer and author of Fly-Fisher in Tasmania, The Enchanting Break O'Day and other titles. Scholes's involvement gives this book a direct connection to the tradition of Tasmanian fly fishing writing that stretches from the Shannon Rise era through to the present day.

At 212 pages with an index, this is a personal and readable memoir of a life spent fishing the highland waters of Tasmania.
