Found it:D
2-5 pm tomorrow.
I checked every fishing site I visit and even Shawn's, to no avail. Then it hit me, the CCA sent me an email and it was in my AOL account.

Marty,

Already got my signed copy...

:)

I am almost through the book...Shawn did a hell of a job on it, it is a great read by someone who cares about our Bay....

Lots of good pointers, but even better, great shared experiences...

Not to steal Shawn's thunder, but I was given this book for Christmas:

http://www.amazon.com/Fishing-Maryla.../dp/0762744456


....and after just flipping through it a little bit, I've picked up on a few places I never knew about.

I'll post more about it later after I go through it completely.

Nice seeing you guys. I thought the BS factor was pretty much under control until Marty showed up!

So whats the book like? Is it strictly about fishing or does it have a lot of conservation stuff in it? I hate thoose kind of books that try to lure you in by claiming its about fishing, only to try to push their beliefs about conservation on you

Its about fishing and there are some really great things to learn in the book, however, Shawn does talk about the importance of respecting the Bay throughout the book.

Not sure if you have kids or not but I can tell you this, some of my best memories of my dad were our times out on the Bay fishing and crabbing...The least I can do for my kids is to make sure I don't screw it up any worse than it already is...

Regardless, Shawn's book is well written and full of good tips and tricks, its not a technical manual, so it reads very well...

Stop by one of the local tackle shops that are carrying the book and check out a few pages...I think you will like it and pick up a copy.

Sounds good thanks, does anybody know what tackle shops are selling them? How about Bowleys B&T

Not sure exactly what shops carry it. I would assume it will be available at some of the winter flea markets, and I know it's available on Shawn's websight chesapeakelighttackle.com:D.

Perhaps Shawn will jump in and list some places it's available.
