I bought this book because I'm a big fan of Jimmy Houston and of bass fishing. I thought the book was really entertaining, but the quality of the writing wasn't so good. If you like Houston's TV shows and magazine articles, you'll really enjoy this book. I think it would have been better if it was a little more organized, but it's still worth the money!

Jimmy Houston is definitely a big name in professional bass angling, and the countless tidbits of tips and tricks contained in his book are a testament to his prowess. Nonetheless, it is evident that Houston isn't as professional with his writing as he is with his fishing. The book was very readable and understandable, but it is clear that this was a somewhat haphazard attempt at putting his truly great skill into words. Bottom line: great info, good for a calm day when you feel like picking up some tips, don't model your writing style after it.
