“A masterpiece….A fascinating story.” — The Great Outdoors

“A remarkable, thrilling, moving, and beautiful life story of an angler who truly gets it.” —Big Fish Energy magazine

“Take an angler, add whisky, women, and a line break, and you’ve got a classic in angling literature.” — Harry Morgan

It all started with a line break.
It was around Christmas, and I was sitting all alone, freezing my ass off in my tent, waiting for a bite. There were plenty of fish in Lake Andreas. No monsters, but when you had to test yet another so-called revolutionary bait for your boss in the dead of winter, you wanted to catch something fast, snap a few pictures, and then head straight for the pub to find a warm bed and a warm body to curl up against. Well, forget it. I’d been struggling for three days without so much as a glimpse of a fish. Revolutionary my ass—more like useless bait.
Picture J. W. Jansen across from you, whisky in hand, spinning his angling tales with effortless charm. Every story flows naturally, without pause or hesitation, as if it could only be told this way—a true angler’s life, raw, real, and unforgettable.
