Two beloved comedians, both recovering from serious heart surgery, decide to go fishing together. What begins as a gentle pursuit of pike, perch and carp becomes something far more meaningful—a meditation on friendship, mortality, and the restorative power of the great outdoors.

With warmth and trademark wit, Bob Mortimer shares tales from their angling adventures across Britain's rivers and lakes. Between the banter and the catches, there are moments of surprising poignancy as the pair reflect on their health scares and the simple joy of being alive. It's a celebration of nature's healing qualities and the importance of spending time doing what matters most—especially when life reminds you how precious it is.

Both hilarious and heartfelt, this is a book for anyone who loves the British countryside, values true friendship, or simply needs reminding to slow down and appreciate the moment.
