Gone Fishing is the touching story of a boy and old man coming to terms with bereavement through their shared love of fishing, and the legend of Goliath, the biggest pike ever caught!The story is in part autobiographical ? while growing up, director Chris Jones and his friends would often attempt to catch the legendary `Oscar the pike?, a fish that according to local myth terrorized the lake at the end of his road, the aptly named Blue Lagoon. This was the inspiration behind the legend of `Goliath?, the big fish in this even bigger tale.Think 'Jaws' but for kids...
