Bass Wars

A Story of Fishing, Fame, and Fortune

De: Nick Taylor

Narrado por: Ken Strecker

Bass Wars: A Story of Fishing, Fame, and Fortune follows professional B.A.S.S fisherman for a year in 1986. The book provides an insider's view of the tournament circuit, the star fishermen, and the want-to-be stars as they compete to catch bass and win big prizes.

It is a reality TV show in an audiobook, and the competition keeps you on the edge of your seat and rooting for your favorites.

The book also tells the story of how Ray Scott founded the Bass Angler Sportsman Society (B.A.S.S.) and launched a series of tournaments that created a new brand of sports hero: the professional bass fisherman. Roland Martin and Rick Clunn won big tournaments and grew into legends. They inspired countless anglers who dreamed of fishing their way to fame and fortune.

Bass Wars vividly describes the beginnings of B.A.S.S. as it follows Clunn, his top rivals, and two of the young dreamers, Randy Blaukat and Randy Moseley, during one grueling and fascinating year in the high-stakes, high-pressure sport of big-league bass fishing. Bass anglers and fishing fans alike consider it a classic.

An eye-opening story on a subject I knew nothing about.

Nick Taylor has written many interesting and engaging books including books about the TVA, construction of the Brooklyn Bridge, and more.
Bass Wars is an entertaining tale of sport fishing narrated masterfully by Ken Strecker. I highly recommend this book to sport fishing enthusiasts and anyone who enjoys a good tale.
