I have read this book 2x. I often think of Calahan( Yes I am f'd up!!) when running on the treadmill or fighting Big bluefin on light leaders...would Calahan give up on this fish???? Hell NOOOO...everyone should read it
Read it and went out and bought myself a hand operated water maker... Extra spear gun rubbers... a bunch of led hand powered lights... and a bunch of stuff...![]()
