Thirty years of fishing, specializing in muskies, give this book an authenticity, value and appeal for those whose hobby is freshwater game fishing. This account of the king of the fighters, the muskellunge (of the pike family), his speed, savage strike, his ways of fighting, and his terrific stamina, includes useful information for the novice as well as the experienced angler. Where and when the muskie is found in United States and Canada, angling techniques, tackle, bait, boat and rod, laws governing the seasons and bags, all of this will be worthwhile for the sportsman, and the stories of the author's personal experiences with the muskies he has fished for and caught, the battles he has had and the stories of the individual catches will hold any angler's interest. You know your market.
