For three years the author fished commercially for the mighty Atlantic salmon, out of a remote fishing station on the West coast of Scotland, working in what would turn out to be a declining inshore fishery. This book is, in part, a poem to Salmo salar, the fabulous ‘Leaper’ of the title, and also an account of everyday life in this remote and beautiful part of the British Isles.
