Personal Best: Fishing and Life: An Obsessive Tournament Angler's Pursuit of Perfection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781940474021)

Author, Kurt Mazurek learned from an early age how to fish for all species, but is admittedly "a freak" for largemouth and smallmouth bass, fishing several tournaments every year. His tournament experience has shaped the approach and strategies he applies to all of his fishing. In fact, these strategies are the foundation and inspiration for his writing. Kurt has always loved to be outdoors. Having grown up in the suburbs of Chicago, he truly appreciates the fishing and outdoor opportunities his current residence in the northwoods of Wisconsin offers him. When not on the front deck of his bass boat, Kurt enjoys playing guitar and writing music, blogging and creating videos for fishingforward.com, studying Texas Hold 'em strategies and relaxing pizza/movie nights on the sofa with his wife and daughter. In his professional career, Kurt has studied all aspects of graphic design, copywriting, advertising and marketing. Combining his work experience with his passion for fishing makes the realization of this novel a dream come true.
