A man can love a woman. There's no trick to that. And a man can love a dog, especially if it is a good dog with worship in its eyes. But can a man love a fish?
An experienced trout fisherman reminisces about the love of opening day in various location in Wisconsin.
If the Fish Is a Trout A Love Story (Audible Audio Edition) Bill Stokes Johnny Mack Stokes Creative LLC Books
This is a sweet reminiscence of a man falling in love with a trout taking place in the Wolf River in Wisconsin.I have never been fishing but this short tale has piqued my interest. I now want to fall in love with a river and her fish and the sport of claiming a meal with patience and perseverance.
Bill Stokes eloquently talks of cool misty mornings as well as steamy afternoons along a river as fish hunters claim their spots and do their best to entice a large trout to sink their mouths on their carefully crafted (or bought) hook-in-disguise. While I have always had some respect for fly fishing, since it requires skill and patience, I now see some beauty in it as well.
As always with Stokes’s works, there’s some humor tucked in here and there. I especially enjoyed his references to love affairs with the fish, his wife’s reactions to his addiction, and the light jabs to those weekend fishermen who drive right up to a chosen spot in the river instead of hiking along the bank a quarter mile or so.
I’ve listened to a few tales by Stokes at this point and I believe this is his most eloquent work. Obviously, he has a love of not only the sport of fishing but also a love and respect for the trout as well.
I received a free copy of this book.
Narration: Johnny Mack did well with this tale. He seemed to get caught up in the beauty of trout season and that came through in his narration.

If the Fish Is a Trout A Love Story (Audible Audio Edition) Bill Stokes Johnny Mack Stokes Creative LLC Books Reviews
Another excellent short story by Bill Stokes. I love his books. They always give me a good laugh. This is a love story about trout! How could that not be humorous? lol I live in Florida so I can somewhat relate to this, although I don't have to deal with the freezing cold weather. Can't say I've fallen in love with a fish but I have been pretty excited! This is a great fishing tale that any fisherman would enjoy! If you're not a fisherman but love funny short stories, you'd love it too!
The thrill of first day fishing openers in Wisconsin as told through the eyes of one angler who has experienced the pounding heartbeat and rush of adrenaline when a trout first grabbed his hook. Stokes talks about how the dance between anglers and fishes has affected many marriages, including his own. He takes playful jabs as others who jockey for prime a fishing spot or some lazy efforts to catch trout feet away from the parking lot.
LibraryThing Member Giveaway randomly chose me to receive this book free from the publisher. I was under no obligation to write a review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
Listening to this story I could feel the breeze and sunshine, see the tall grass and the calm cold water and be there. It is indeed heaven on earth. I loved this story and how poetic and relaxing it was to listen to. I think the overall tone of this story was harmonious with the art and love of trout fishing. Bill Stokes paints a beautiful image in my mind with his words.
Johnny Mack is a fantastic narrator. He nails this story with his smooth, even-toned voice. He's poetic as well. Just awesome!
I was provided this audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review courtesy of AudiobookBoom dot com.
I would imagine that this book would appeal to trout fishermen everywhere who can empathise and understand the fishy madness which can often consume a man. Being a fisherman myself I have frozen mid-winter on the banks of a lake in the almost forlorn hope of hooking a beastie. Hours can be spent, staring at almost certain failure, forgoing the comfort of a fireplace and a few glasses of wine and a good book, in exchange for just the chance that you could encourage one of the slippery fiends onto your hook.
This is an entertaining book which describes such insanity with humour. A decent four stars for me.
