A project that has taken up the last five years of my life is now finally done.
Book store's are now taken pre orders for my book.
Google The Orvis Guide To Personal Fishing Craft.  and check it out.
I have always been proud to be a part of this forum.
I wanted to share it with you first.

Why Do I paddle a kayak instead of a float tube or a pontoon boat? I like seeing where I'm going not where I've been!
Paddle safe and wrap'em tight.

 :smt006 Howdy Rickey,

Thanks for the tip and congrats on your new book.   Five years!   Now that's dedication!    :groupwave   I didn't see the book at Amazon yet.

I've started contributing a few pictures and articles to some kayak fishing mags.   I don't have a lot of experience (yet) but love to write and photograph, and there never seems to be a shortage of adventures to write about.   

We're lucky to live near Mendocino and all of our great well protected bays and rivers, so we go out several times per week if we can, in our Hobies.  Life is Good.  Kayaking buddies are even better.   Come visit if you're ever up this way (Seriously, and this invite goes to everyone in NCKA)   We're building a little NCKA camp for small groups right on my property, just a half mile from Mendocino, in a great location.  :smt004

-Matt and Mariko

Thanks guys,
Hobiesport, here's anothertip in your future writing, say as much as possible with as little as possible or as few word as possible.
Thanks again guys.

Thanks Paul, I 'll be doing my first book signing, which is going to take some getting use to, here in Fresno.
Hobie Sport, I've yet to hold a copy in my hand. I'll be selling them on my webpage.
Barnes and Nobles and others are selling pre copies.
