Customer Reviews

drift boat owner

Wanted a clear discussion about the various techniques used in drift boat fishing on streams in the area. This book does an excellant job. Not long winded - just to the point. Valuable information for fishing a drift boat or pontoon boat on a stream.

Since Dan wrote this book, side drifting has become a very common way to catch steelies here in the pacific northwest. This book certainly contributed to that. Instructions are straightforward and clear. A worthwhile read. Wayne Heinz, author of, How to Catch Salmon, Sturgeon, Lingcod, Rockfish, and Halibut Along the Pacific Coast: Fish On!
