About the Book

What do you say to a seven-foot alligator that has grabbed your favorite lure and is thrashing angrily at the end of your line?  Or a sly raccoon that skillfully swipes your catch of the day?

Fasten your life jacket and climb aboard for a day of excitement with the wackiest crew that ever left a dock, and you'll find out.

This carefree (carefree, not trouble-free) group of weekend fishermen takes Safe Boating Tips about as seriously as a late night show monologue and boldly ventures into mysterious waters in the 10,000 islands where very few anglers dare to go.

Trolling strange waters in the wilderness wonderland can lead to unplanned predicaments.  But, pushing a one-ton boat out of a muddy entrapment can be a barrel of laughs -- especially when you are sloshing through muck up to your gollywobble.

Join the wacky skipper and his buddies for a day of reel jollies in the backwaters of the Ten Thousand Islands.
