I first joined the fishing tackle industry as a fishing rod engineer for Shimano, this was later followed by the role of Product Manager for the fishing division. I have since moved on in my career; but as all fishermen know, you can never quite be really that far from what's true to your heart; hence my writing of this book. This book details some of my bittersweet and sometimes funny personal fishing memoirs which I hope would be a good read for you when you are not out on the water.
