description: Anatomy of a fisherman features many full page photos of Voelker’s fishing haunts, fish, gear, and many other elements of the angling experience. While light on words, the pages speak volumes. This book is also where Traver published “Testament of a Fisherman”, a 200-word essay that speaks to the heart of every true angler, and answers the age-old why do we fish? It ends with the phrase “I fish….not because I regard fishing as being so terribly important but because I suspect that so many of the other concerns of men are equally unimportant – and not nearly so much fun.”
