Here is the slightly riveting, marginally humorous, and discouragingly unoriginal fishing life of disgraced morning radio-show host TJ Trout. Filled with exaggerated tales of minor mishaps and mediocre near-death experiences, Trout takes all of us down the river in the Southwestern United States, up a creek in Canada, out to sea in the tropics, and lake-dancing in Argentina. Somehow, he manages to stay one step ahead of the law and catch a few fish while imparting some highly valuable life lessons, like when or when not to use a fly rod (definitely not while driving or on the toilet).
