I'm done!!

After much slaving in front of the old computer screen, book number two is off to the publisher. "Striper Strategies" will be a resource guide for surfcasters looking to widen their surfcasting strategy arsenal. It will include 4 chapters on artificials (surface, sub-surface, soft-bodied plastics, and metals/tins), then chapters on raking crabs, clamming, chunking, live-lining, all aspects of eels, and snag and drop rigs and techniques.
Although it is a technical journal it is juiced up by stories and challenges geared at pushing the single-facted casters to new horizons.
It is also illustrated by my buddy Mark Jolliffe who has done drawings as an intro to each chapter. They are sweet and will add alot of dimension to the book, they are cool!
It should be out by April and the usual haunts will carry it.

Here is a rendering similar to those that will be in the book.

Right click the image on amazon, or some other site with the pic, and go to properties. Copy the path to the jpg file and paste it into the image insert option for replies\posts.

BTW There is another book called Striper Strategies.
Striper Strategies: Secrets of a Striper Bum - GARTSIDE, JACK

Congrats can't wait to get it. I'm actually just finishing up your other book.
