5 out of 5 stars A must-have for shore fishermen!   August 16, 2008
I have two copies of this book - one I purchased through Amazon, and a personally autographed copy I won on the PFIC internet site. I gifted one to my friend, who I "hooked" into fishing a couple of years ago. The book is filled with useful fishing information for both the novice and more experienced angler, and the intel on California piers stands alone. If you're looking for a book on shore or pier fishing in the Golden State, you can't do any better than Ken's book!

My title says it all. If you're looking to start a new hobby, get better at your current one, or want some leisurely California history reading, this book can't be beat. I can't wait to hit the piers...

5 out of 5 stars The best source for Pier Fishing In California   August 18, 2004
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

The new edition is larger, but is chalked full of usefull info for any angler. It has great rigging techniques, and a huge amount of info on all of California's piers. Ken Jones knows his stuff, and the book shows it. I own both editions and they are perminant items on my coffee table at home. I'd highly reccomend this book to anyone interested in fishing...these books have it all!
