Mike, thanks very much.
I tried not to be preachy in the book, but I don't know a single good fishermen who doesn't care about preserving our sport.

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.

Chesapeake rock - Shawn's book is a good read. Lots of good stories , tips , etc. for LTJ - you know the guys who can not figure out trolling
I did not find any hidden agenda - the catch / release stuff is part of the game.

Shawn - Ever consider looking into a digital version?
I'm a KISS kind of guy myself (Keep It Simple, Stupid) but I've really fallen in love with reading digital books lately. They're so much easier to manage and since I always have my tablet with me, I can always carry my library with me.

I'm not a very good collector of anything. If it aint practical, I can't have it.

I look forward to picking it up myself. While my wife is into her nook, I will get myself a printed copy.

Thank you. I'm amazed that the eBook format took right off. Barnes & Noble has it for Nook readers now as well. I batting back and forth whether to put it on iBooks. It's somewhat expensive and I'm wondering if iPad users already have Nook or Kindle apps anyway?
