Gary Yamamoto Book Details History Behind Senko, Hula Grub
Two of the most reliable lures used by Michiana anglers are the Yamamoto Senko and the Hula Grub. Both have accounted for thousands of bass across northern Indiana and southern Michigan natural lakes.
Bassmaster Senior Writer Steve Price documents the life and history behind the man who created them, Gary Yamamoto, and how they and other lures were created.
“My Life with Fish” is an easy read yet fascinating book about Yamamoto’s legacy and his phenomenal business, not only as a lure designer, but as a top-notch West Coast bass pro and cattle rancher. We read it and truly enjoyed hearing the backstory to Yamamoto’s success.
The soft cover version is available for $19.95 online at www.baits.com or by calling the Yamamoto office, 800-645-2248. A hard cover will be available in 4-6 weeks for $24.95.

Impressive cookbook covers all the bases for anglers, hunters and gardeners.THE FIELD TO TABLE COOKBOOK brings more than 150 family-pleasing, nutritious, and accessible recipes to home cooks who want to increase their knowledge and enjoyment of procuring and cooking clean, organic meat, fish, fruits, and vegetables.
The increasing popularity of the modern farm-to-table movement bringing locally sourced food to the familyis brought to its logical conclusion in author Susan L. Ebert's field-to-table food aesthetic. Ebertan experienced hunter, angler, forager, and gardenersays it best herself, What if, I thought, I had just one book: one that had the basics of which animals to hunt when; what species of fish to target in each month; what native nuts, berries, roots, and leaves were prime for foraging? And what if it also had tips on year-round organic gardening, since our climate is so generous with its growing seasons? And, of course, at its heart would be more than 150 recipes with menus combining each months most prized fare, and how to best preserve wild game and fish, and fruits and vegetables at their peak, so they could be savored all year long.
Ebert pairs her straightforward recipes with more than 100 illustrative photos of procuring food in the field and presenting it on the table, along with tips on dressing, deboning, preparing, drying, curing, and preserving natures bounty. This book is a wonderful resource: as a thorough seasonal guide to cooking with game, foraged food and organic vegetables (for non-hunters and hunters alike); as a cookbook for hunters; and as a guide for home cooks who prepare fish and game for their family. No intimidation here, this is the elegant yet accessible cookbook championing the original human culinary endeavor, self-sustainability.

BoatUS Has Come a long Way in 50 YearsIn 1966, boaters could buy a new mid-sized cruiser for about $7,000, outboard engines had just surpassed 100 horsepower, and recreational boating was growing on a large scale across America. It was also in 66 that the nations largest recreational boating group, Boat Owners Association of The United States ( HYPERLINK "http://www.BoatUS.com" BoatUS), got its start thanks to Founder Richard Schwartz who saw a need to make recreational boaters lives better.
His vision of offering representation, improving safety, providing quality services at competitive prices and saving boaters money was all rolled up into the service, savings and representation motto that remains at the core of the more than half million member organization today.
BoatUS has always been there for boaters and always will be, said BoatUS President Margaret Podlich. Whether its helping boaters have a safe day on the water, ensuring that boating taxes go to boating programs, offering competitive boat insurance coverage, or having the largest on water towing fleet in the nation, BoatUS is proudly the single source of exceptional service and savings. Were steadfast in our commitment to protect boaters and their rights, making boating safer, more affordable and accessible.
