More About the Author

Hi,
My Book, Fish On!, draws on several thousand hours I've spent fishing in the Pacific Northwest.

My editor & I tried to make the book as practical & useful as possible -- easy reading, educational, entertaining. I think you'll enjoy it.

As a member of the Northwest Outdoor Writers' Association, I write about fishing & boating -- about 55 articles for 16 magazines and newspapers.

My job is to help you catch more fish. Hopefully, Fish On! will do that job.

Tight lines,
Wayne

This book is chock full of information that will answer any question about how to catch fish in Northwest waters. It's written in a format that's quick and to the point. Take the guess work out of what lure to use and learn how to use a boat's depth sounder as a tool for successful fishing. The book has so much useful information that it will improve the odds of catching fish for the beginner or the seasoned expert. Great book!!

This review is from: How to Catch Salmon, Sturgeon, Lingcod, Rockfish, and Halibut Along the Pacific Coast: Fish On! (Paperback)

If you own just one book on pursuing the West Coast's premier ocean and estuary fish species, make this the book. With sections specific to Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, Oregon and California, and with excellent illustrations and photos and a concise, too-the-point writing style, Wayne Heinz has given serious and novice anglers alike a resource that absolutely will help you put more fish in your boat. That he manages to do this in a slim, highly readable 108 pages rates as one of the great writing achievements in any kind of angling. Get this book even if you live on the East Coast and only dream about fishing the West Coast!
