Thumbs up Finished "On The Run".

Thought it was a very good read with only two problems....I wish there had been a little more involvement with actual fishing....which leads me to my other problem???? When the author does eventually catch up with Al McReynolds to fish, they never actually do, and he does not explain why all of a sudden Al McReynolds disappears????? Very few, if any fish caught...it is more about the people he meets and the fish they catch! I recommend it though! Did anyone else notice these little problems I speak of???? Three little smiley guys reading out of five rating!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I thought it was a great book. It needs to be taken for what it is, a book about one guys adventures following the striper migration. Not nessasarily a book about "catching" fish.

Great fun reading that one.

Probably should be subtitled " Skippy's Fall Fishing Adventure"

Who knows? may be he is on to the next book more on tech side.

I am sure he will elaborate all the aspects of finest details with his unusually literal talent. It will be very very interesting.
