    I have it at Fisherman's Access in Brea and The Longfin in Orange. Pat's Bait & Tackle in Vista just picked it up also but it won't be to their store until early next week. The Bishop Chamber of Commerce and Spellbinder Books in Bishop will also have it.

    I don't have any hookups in the LA area but if anyone has a local shop they'd like to see carry it, ask your local tackle retailer about it and have them call me if they're interested as I do sell them wholesale.

    I will likely get with a distributor in the spring - but not until a few more reviews come out about it.

    Thanks guys & gals!

    Got my signed copy last week and promptly read it. Thanks Smitty! I really like how it read. I really liked the detail about exactly where/what to fish at each lake. I am exited to try some of these lakes out, as I have been to seven of the lakes outlined in this book and everything Smitty says about them holds true to what I have found as well.

    There was one thing I read that didn't seem right though. The book shows the Grass lake hike at 300' elevation gain. It also shows McCleod at 300' elevation gain. My Tom Harrison maps show the Grass lake trail having 610' elevation gain from the trailhead to the Lamarck lakes turn off. Harrison also shows McCleod at around 300' elevation gain. Grass is at least twice the hike that McCloud is from my experiences. I would be interested to learn how you came to the 300' figure.

    For anyone reading this that has not ordered this book yet, DO IT! You will not be disappointed!!!
