Fishing with John recounts an intimate, unlikely marriage between Edith Iglauer, who traded city life for the British Columbia coast, and John Daly, a skilled commercial fisherman. She lived for years aboard his forty-one-foot troller, the Morekelp, sharing the daily rhythms of sea and shore until his sudden death.

Daly appears as a gifted, eccentric figure: a working man with a philosophical bent who felt at one with the ocean and the coastal mountains. His personality—part mystic, part practical seafarer—is sketched through vivid onboard detail and memorable anecdotes.

Combining seafaring observation with a tender portrait of companionship across different worlds, the book offers a clear-eyed look at life, work, and the bonds that form when two very different lives converge.
