In the summer of 1995, lifelong saltwater fisherman Sid Dobrin accepted a job in the Midwest, taking him far away from the saltwater fishing world that had become a substantial part of his life. The two years he spent away from the ocean gave him the necessary perspective to reflect upon the lure of saltwater fishing familiar to anglers of all types and abilities - the taste of the sea's salty spray while casting into the surf at sunrise; the calm, quiet drift of a boat on one's home water; the sudden tug of a battling fish on the end of a line. The result is this beautifully crafted collection of evocative, entertaining, often funny essays on a range of topics guaranteed to appeal to anyone who has ever cast a line into the sea in pursuit of wild gamefish. Dobrin takes the reader through the sometimes tangled role fathers play in the maturing of a young fisherman; the sanctity and security of fishing one's favorite waters; the special relationships between comfortable fishing partners; the pleasures and pitfalls of drinking and fishing; the mysteries of fly fishing; and much more.

A father and son, long-estranged, fight to win a fishing competition together—and lose the pain that’s kept them apart. It’s 1976, and William McKay is at the top of his game. He’s taken over the family brokerage firm. He has a stunning and accomplished fiancée. The NYC Chamber of Commerce has named him the Under 40 Executive of the Year. And yet . . . William knows something is missing. Then he receives a phone call from his father, who disappeared eleven years earlier while William's mother was dying from Alzheimer’s. Leo's living in the Florida Keys now, and he wants William to join him in a father-son fishing competition. Stunned by this father’s audacity, suspicious of his motives, but even more desperate to leave New York, William agrees and heads south in his private jet. The basis for the forthcoming film Blood Knot starring Oscar-winner Michael Douglas and his own son Cameron Douglas, Looking Through Water chronicles the indelible impact that long-festering pain can have on a family, and the healing that comes with forgiveness—once we learn when to reel in a big catch and when to let it all go.
