Book - Jungle Blues
A NZ book great gift, great reviews
“I tried to ask the shopkeeper what the fish was called and he tore the corner off a cardboard box and wrote in English, ‘Pla Chado’ – the giant snake-headed fish.”
From his rural home in the South Island of New Zealand, self-professed fly-fishing geek Stu Tripney designs flies and runs the New Zealand Fly Fishing School. But every now and then, a fish swims into his dreams …
Jungle Blues is Stu’s first travel memoir, recounting his strange adventures while living in the jungles of Malaysia. A story about the environment, human nature and strange friends, this hilarious tale will appeal to anyone who loves the thrill of travel and adventure.
I am not much of a fly fisher, but after reading Jungle Blues, I was not only greatly entertained, but tempted to wade back into it." -
