Whether he's chasing sailfish in Panama or hunting dove and quail deep in Mexico, Gordon England pursues outdoor sports with a passion for the biggest and best. In this collection he catches huge dolphin in the Exumas, races motocross through woods both on and off the trails, hunts ducks in brutal Texas snow and ice, hooks hopelessly large blue marlin in Nassau, and gets lost at sea in a monstrous Gulf of Mexico storm.

Stricken with a lifelong obsession for offshore fishing, Jeff Nichols had been running part-time charters out of Montauk Harbor, once dubbed “the sport fishing capital of the world”, for 10 years with mediocre results. Most of the time, he just brought friends out and considered a trip successful if the customers didn’t stiff him, walk off with his gear, or puke all over him. Then he started a Groupon campaign and became one of the busiest captains in Montauk, sailing twice a day all week long. But unbeknownst to his customers, he was ill-prepared and grossly underqualified.

"What The Lake Knows" is a modern parable about confronting the stories we tell ourselves—about luck, about loss, about what keeps us safe. In the tradition of "The Alchemist" and "The Old Man and the Sea," this tale reminds us that sometimes our deepest beliefs are the very things preventing us from moving forward. Set against the timeless backdrop of the Great Lakes fishing industry, this meditation on courage, change, and wisdom reveals that our greatest limitations often exist only in our minds. Sometimes the heaviest anchors are the ones we choose to carry. Perfect for readers who ...

A safe boater is able to see what's ahead -- and avoid it when necessary. But in smaller boats it's difficult to see when you can't stand up. Grab bars and leaning posts do the trick on larger boats but these are often absent in smaller fishing and hunting boats. Aftermarket equipment is available but really expensive -- $100.00--$1200.00. The solution? Here's a quick DIY guide on building and installing your own leaning post using materials found in any Thrift Shop or Outlet. I built mine for about $5 and now I stand and steer easily and safely in both fresh and saltwater.

Boxes are provided for the reader to draw each scene as to how they see the story unfolding. There are suggestions for the parents, ...

After fishing in the Extreme Kayak Fishing Series Sailfish Smackdown, I learned a lot. Israel Dunn from Shoreboundhero.com and I traveled down to Pompano Beach, Florida, to compete.

It walks through everything from packing, kayak selection, gear choice, launching, landing, and so much more!
