Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

"Peculiar outdoor clubs, dogs with an attitude, and toadfish tournaments are a few of the subjects covered. Walters says some adventures really happened but are recounted in a fictional style. Others are mostly fiction presented as fact ("Something all anglers understand," he says)."

..... Chesapeake Bay Magazine "Author Keith Walters boogaloos his way to a third book.... stories about snallygasters, toadfish tournaments, head fish, doublers, rockfish, peculiar hunt clubs, and a bewildering array of the author's offbeat outdoors companions."

..... Easton (MD) Star-Democrat "Full of laughs (and a few tears). This book is a major (and will be a lasting) contribution to the region's literature... leaves the reader feeling there should be more, more, more..."
