Anyone ever read this book by Bob Underwood?  Lunker! is pretty old, my copy says 1975 so I suppose most of our younger members have not heard of it, but thought I'd ask.  

If you have read it or do own it what do you think of it?

Nobod here has read this book??  

If you ever get a chance, do read it.  His work is based on over 1700 hours of underwater study/observation of bass.  He contradicts a lot of what is accepted as "the norm" today.  It would make for a lot of "colorful" discussion here I'm sure.

I don't think this book is easily obtained anymore though, I stole my copy from the Library about 20 years ago. (actually I just forgot to return it and found it about 5 yrs later packed away from our "move".

I'm a reading fool, especially during the winter...

I just looked on E-bay for this book. They have a few at a hefty price (for a used book that is!). Looks like you have a collecters item there.

Unfortunately it's not in the best of shape, having been a Library book and all, but it is intact.  Wouldn't be worth much to any collector, but it really is some good reading.

I have read the book. it is very informative. I got a lot more from that book than I did any of the Big Mouth dvds. It is a definate read!!!

I have it. It is interesting; Enough that it brought up lots of questions. But,  as I hear it, Mr Underwood and his wife died in a car wreck a year after the book was published.

That is glum news regarding the author and his wife.....but in this world, that probably makes the book worth more.

I bought mine thru Amazon. Wasn't expensive.

I read it and recommend it. My local library got it from another library for me for free.
