I've Never Met an Idiot on the River: Reflections on Family, Fishing, and Photography by Henry Winkler

Though a veteran of show business and a television legend, Henry Winkler’s greatest passion has always been fishing. It takes him outdoors and back to nature, away from the busyness of everyday life, what he calls a “washing machine for your brain.” Standing in the river offers a different way of being, one that allows intuition to take over and meaningful life lessons to surface.

About This Product

I’ve Never Met an Idiot on the River is a reflective and often funny collection of everyday wisdom learned through fatherhood, family, and fly fishing. From dry flies to woolly buggers, Winkler shares how time on the water has shaped the way he sees the world and himself.

Spending time in nature and on fishing trips with family taught him how to be a better father and husband, and how to find more value in everyday moments. Courting fish with flies made him more patient, more self-reliant, and yes, funnier. Through wading rivers and casting lines, Winkler gained perspective, simplicity, and a bit more wisdom along the way. As the saying goes, you’ll never meet an idiot on the river.

Softcover. 45 color photos; black and white photos throughout. 7 x 8.5 inches. 144 pages.

Henry Winkler is a New York Times bestselling author whose Hank Zipzer series regularly tops the children’s book charts. He is widely known for his role as the Fonz on the television series Happy Days. He lives in Los Angeles with his wife, Stacey, their three children, and two dogs.
