5.0 out of 5 stars A GREAT BOOK!, December 28, 2007
This review is from: The Complete Kayak Fisherman (Paperback)
In my area, we don't have a local Kayak Shop to rely on for information, advice, and guidance. This book does all of that and more if you are interested in the sport of kayak fishing!

Whether you are a novice or an experienced yak fisherman, this book is a great read to make you an even better kayaker. It reads as if you are talking with a pro inside a kayak shop. It was so informative and laid out in such a way, that I highlighted stuff in my personal copy! This will help me find key knowledge later after I am through reading it. My personal highlighting is also complimented by a great index by the author to find those "juicy" tid-bits.

This book helped me choose gear, install accessories, and learn some great techniques & safety principles. Although he does not say this is the best kayak, piece of gear, etc., he guides you to some better brands and helps you make knowledgeable choices by imparting his own experience and expertise. He tells you what to look for, what to avoid, and encourages you to not make the mistakes he made (i.e. going cheap the first go around - only to buy more pricey (better) stuff later, thus costing you more.)

He compliments this by brining in subject matter experts from companies that produce paddles, kayaks, GPS systems, etc. This is a BIG PLUS! Hear it from him.....hear it from those who make/develop this stuff!!!

I love the underlying theme woven throughout the book - SAFETY & BEING PREPARED! Being a Boy Scout leader, these two principles are near and dear to my heart!

I definitely give this book a 5 star rating - it is a must read for any kayak fisherman. My son will be obligated to read it before he assumes control of his new yak received at Christmas. In my area, we don't have a local Kayak Shop to rely on for information, advice, and guidance. This book does all of that and more if you are interested in the sport of kayak fishing!

4.0 out of 5 stars The "Almost" Complete Kayak Fisherman, November 17, 2007
By A. Meline (Honolulu, HI) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Complete Kayak Fisherman (Paperback)
Ric Burnley's book is fantastic! Throughout this well written book he carefully describes in detail all things relevant to choosing, rigging, paddling, and fishing with a heavy emphasis on safety. Clearly the best kayak book I've read and since I'm new to this sport I've read several that don't come close to explaining facets of the game that both beginners and advanced yak fishermen will need to know. My only criticism is that when describing regional differences, there is absolutely no mention of kayak fishing in Hawaii, which can be a different challenge althogether. We have a rapidly growing kayak fishing community out here and it was completly overlooked.
