Hunting Oregon By Gary Lewis
Softbound; 8-3/8 x 10-7/8; color 128 pages, $20ISBN: 978-0-9761244-1-2 From the breaks of the Snake River to the breakers of the Pacific, from the Outback to the dunes, from the Siskiyous to the Wallowas, Oregon has a landscape as diverse as it is beautiful. And there is no better way to see it, to live it, than with a good pair of boots and gun or bow in hand. In Hunting Oregon, the authors (Gary Lewis, Scott Haugen and Duane Dungannon) take you afield to hunt Roosevelt and Rocky Mountain elk, blacktail deer, mule deer, Columbia whitetails, bighorn sheep and more. Follow along on hunts for chukar, pheasant and wild turkey. Discover when and where to hunt. Find patterns in travel and behavior and learn how game animals make use of cover. Learn how to plan the hunt, to take trophy animals, to turn the harvest into delicious and nutritious meals and prepare your prize for taxidermy. Hunting Oregon is about the pursuit of waterfowl, upland birds, small game, predators and big game in the Beaver State. It is also about a way of life, a passion shared by men and women, a passion we pass to the next generation. And it is the celebration of the chase and the solitary challenge, the time spent with friends or family around the campfire.

Outlaws On The Big River By Joe Schwab  Softbound, 5 x 8, b&w, 118 pages, $19.95 ISBN 978-1451556-3-6-0 A riveting collection of 25 years of stories , encounters and experiences of a Game Warden who lived, worked and loved the mighty Columbia River and its vast public natural resources. These are the true stories of a fish cop on the water, often in the dark, from the tumultous days following the Boldt Salmon Decision to his retirement in 1994. Sometimes humorous, sometimes dangerous and deadly, always entertaining, Schwab spins a network of stories that will entrance, enlighten and fascinate you. Enforcing fish and game laws on the Big River between Oregon and Washington is a challenge that few men can handle. Schwab made it a career. This section of the river is subject to both commercial and sport fishing as well as the exercise of treaty Indian fishing by local tribes that have lived along the river for thousands of years. Salmon and Steelhead runs once numbered in the millions each year, now total less than 500,000. These stories simply tell the problems, hazards and complexities facing law enforcement in its attempts to curb the poaching thefts and illegal abuses by man. The humorous side, the dangerous side and the tedious side all combine in one of the most interesting occupations in the outdoor field. Fly Fishing The Baja And Beyond By Mike Rieser 
Softbound,6 x 9, b&w 170 pages, $19.95 ISBN: 978-0-578-07556-3 The famously ferocious fish on the East Cape of the Baja Peninsula in the Sea of Cortez Mexico are challenges that to be appreciated must be experienced and once experienced become an addiction. Within range of East Cape beach casters, pangas and kayaks is the "Roosterfishing Capital of the World," plus jack crevalle, dorado that explode on flies with electric blues and greens that belong in another constellation,marlin and sailfish, powerful yellowfin tuna, packs of bonito, tunny's, pargo, explosive wahoo and several dozen other game fish. The author’s addiction to fly-fishing the East Cape began in 1974 and has morphed into 30 years of study, exploration, experimentation, documentation and ownership of an East Cape outfitting service called Baja Fly Fishing based at Van Wormer’s Resorts on an unpopulated beach an hour north of Cabo. This is not an adventure book, although impossible to read without feeling the stir of salt air and tropical adventure, but more of a no-nonsense edifying instructional book that will shave decades, literally, off the learning curve of successful Baja fly fishing. Rieser explains how to understand saltwater predator feeding behaviors, how to trigger those behaviors, and when to leave them alone. He details in plain terms tackle choices, fly selection and tactical approaches. Line art illustrations complete the text book appeal of complicated knots and systems. The author specializes in giant roosterfish and Fly Fishing the Baja and Beyond is likely to become the definitive how-to guide for roosterfish fanatics and most certainly a solid textbook guide for targeting the most popular fly fishing challenges on the beaches and impossibly deep trench water of the Sea of Cortez. If you intend to fly fish the Sea of Cortez this book is an investment that will shorten the learning curve and multiply the excitement. If you want to catch the Roosterfish of a lifetime you'll learn exactly how to do it. Western Washington's Boat Launches
