The story is about the author's personal fishing trips, especially in places like the Catskill Mountains and Lake Horicon. Lanman talks about how much he loves fishing and the amazing nature and interesting people he sees. One memorable trip with a partner involves a hard climb and camping under the stars. He experiences a thunderstorm and beautiful sunrises, thinking about how wonderful nature is. We also meet Peter Hummel, a quirky hunter and guide, who shows the tough spirit of the area. Lanman's love for both fishing and nature sets the scene for the exciting adventures to come.
