BOOKS

Even if a fishing trip is your idea of vacation hell, you'll still enjoy Darwin's Bass (Keokee Publishing). It's a witty, informal guide to the human mind, as seen by psychologist/fly fisherman Paul Quinnett, Ph.D.

"Fishing is a metaphor for human behavior," insists Quinnet, so Bass tackles the similarities between good fishing and good sex, not to mention human and trout intelligence. Special bonus: tips on how to recapture your Inner Fishing Child.
