The Compleat Angler – Part Three: Fly-Fishing on the River Frome

Inspired by the original two Compleat Angler books, Colin M Jarman’s Part Three is an uproariously updated fictional interpretation and recasting of those 17th century classic fishing manuals for the modern day.

TCA3 is a comic novel that casually casts into the murky waters of literary history and reels in startling new truths and shocking twists about The Compleat Angler and its celebrated co-authors & legendary fishing buddies: Izaak Walton & Charles Cotton.

The story follows a fly-fishing lesson on the banks of the River Frome chalkstream in Dorset.
