Fishing with Gubby  Cover Image Book Book

Fishing with Gubby / by Gary Kent ; illustrated by Kim La Fave.

Kent, Gary, 1941- (Author). LaFave, Kim. (Added Author).

Summary:

Gubby is a salmon fisherman who lives with his wife Millie and cat Puss in a small seaside village on the west coast of British Columbia. He keeps his boat, the Flounder, a 36-foot west coast salmon troller, at a local wharf with many other boats. Part graphic novel and part ocean adventure story, Fishing with Gubby not only depicts the salty BC coast, it captures the vanishing “golden age” when fishing was more than just a job it's was a way of life.
