Read and re-read this one!

Catching On is a memoir that rings with honesty and sings with the humor of real life. You don't have to have a passion for fly fishing, or even be in a relationship with a fisherperson, in order to identify with the stories that Carol Morrison has so beautifully put together in this volume. If you have a strong passion for something beyond your life partner, or if you are on the other side of such a relationship, will find yourself somewhere in this book. Catching On was a total pleasure to read the first time and immediately went on my re-read list for the summer!

A line on loving...

Loved this book! I read this book cover to cover in an evening, enjoying it as I would a pleasant conversation with a friend. It's humor and grace are a comfort in this complicated world. "Catching On" is a good place to go when you need a gentle reminder of how it's all the little things piling up that creates magnificance.

A warm & wonderful journey.....

I laughed, often cried at every one of Carol's life stories. Her insecurities, her annoyances, her tender learnings, herloving and her being loved are so completely her own, and yet familiar. Her "Bloody Duck" incident touched a chord so true that we read it to brunch guests a few weeks ago, after which we spontaneously shared our own stories of love and forgiveness.I highly recommend "Catching On" for those who find loving another a worthy journey of the heart.

Rule Me With a Gentle Hand

I recently purchased this book and couldn't put it down until I finished it. The story depicts real people learning to cope with the difficulties of modern love and marriage. Even if the "other woman" in a marriage is racing, football, or shopping, etc., the reader can truly appreciate the important truths about married life that are revealed again and again. Hopefully, "to rule with a gentle hand" will become the goal of those who read this realistic description of the evolution of love.

A gentle memoir about love, fly fishing, and faith in God

Carol Morrison's Catching On: Love With An Avid Fly Fisher is a gentle series of essays about love, fly fishing, and faith in God. A compelling story of sharing bonds and pastimes, as well as a reverent appreciation for the harvested bounties of nature, Catching On is a memorable dream made real -- and pleasantly colored with a personal love of angling for a fish dinner.
