Gary’s books are great, I bought the CD sometime ago, like the book as a second way to learn Gary’s casting techniques.
Like other Borger books in this series it suffers from very sloppy editing. The content is very good but I fear self publishing has done a disservice to the content as it distracts from the overall enjoyment.
