Editorial Reviews

Review

"Couple catalogues numbers for best boating haunts... and now their compilation is the yardstick by which others are measured." -- Soundings,,, Jim Flannery - May 1988

"Fishing by the book makes big mouth a hero... he collected a number of the states' best fishing holes -- and published them in a book. Do you understand what he did? He spilled the beans. He sang like a canary. He published the places where fish actually can be caught... -- Floridian - St Petersburg Times,,, Jeff Klinenberg, March 30, 1988

Worlds largest "Little Black Book" Valuable...

The first edition was published in 1986, and sales now exceed 22,000 copies. Anyone with any experience in writing techinical boating or yachting material knows that number --- and at that price -- is the equivalent of a runaway best seller. -- Ft Myer News Press - May 1990
