It’s likely that you could use the fingers on one hand, leaving a few to spare, to count the number of anglers that have had the privilege to travel the world more widely than photographer Matt Harris. For decades, Matt has circumnavigated the globe—visiting over 40 different countries—in pursuit of wild fish and wild places. All the while, Matt has compiled not only a library of breathtaking imagery, but of memories, as well. Though Matt is well known as both a highly skilled photographer and fly angler, unlisted amongst his talents is perhaps his greatest: storytelling—something those who have had the good luck of sharing a campfire or a bar tab with Matt know well. A gifted raconteur, he commands the room when spinning a tale, compelling the attention of anyone within earshot.

For the first time, Matt has amassed these decades worth of images and stories in a collection. In his new book, The Fish of a Lifetime, Matt offers readers a chance to pore over a massive, 656-page trove of globe-spanning tales, illustrated by hundreds of his beautiful, high-resolution images exquisitely printed in large format full color.

We invited Matt to share a small portion of his voluminous collection of images — and the memories they evoke — with us. Dig in.
