Steve’s Stories in Print

As a lifelong fisherman, Steve’s adventures on the water make for both thrilling and compelling stories. Now, a selection have appeared in print.

Paul Knight’s Amazing Fishing Stories features tales from two of Steve’s fishing expeditions.

One comes from Steve’s time fishing for trevally in the Indian Ocean. After catching three giant trevallies, he accidentally hooked something far bigger – a lemon shark! Wrestling with the fish in an attempt to free it from the hook, Steve knew he needed to find a way to open its mouth. The only problem was the only objects he had in the boat were a pair of tweezers and a bottle of lemonade…

The second takes place on the Varzuga river, in the Arctic Circle. Famed for its harsh meteorological conditions and abundance of salmon, the Varzuga gave him a little more than he bargained for. Suddenly, a large block of ice broke loose and came crashing down the river and into him. With five broken ribs and a fractured cheekbone, Steve returned home with more mementos of the trip than he’d planned – and is one of the only people to have been treated at A&E in London as an iceberg victim!
