5.0 out of 5 stars You've never really fished until you've read this book!, July 2, 1998
By macks@leland.stanford.edu (Stanford University) - See all my reviews
Tom Stienstra takes the fishing enthusiast on a whirlwind tour of California's ultimate fishing spots, highlighting the various subtleties and intricacies of the California coast while detailing the inummerable pleasures discovered while holding one's rod tight in hand. His tender yet knowing writing makes for an immensely pleasurable read, and a definite must-have for any California fisherman!

3.0 out of 5 stars Lake Natomas, December 26, 1999
Tom, Your book is full of wonderful information which I use when fishing any number of the Central Sierra and Sacramento Valley lakes and rivers. The book allows you to picks a place you would not normally fish and then use some of the techniques which you present to actually catch fish. Thanks a lot for the great info. Sincerely Doug Yeggy P.S. Lake Natomas record rainbow is now over 21 lbs and I have personally caught a Landlocked King which weighed in a 7 3/4 lbs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Butt-kicker, December 15, 1997
By A Customer
If a person could fish just 10% of the places Tom's written about, he would be a well-traveled person. The author does a superb job of giving the reader a true feel for the places he writes of, and includes the important things like how to get there and where to park. There is one omission however; Tom's secret fishing hole is not listed. Kudos to the individual who finds it!
