Debut Novel Out Now
FISHING MEMOIR
by
Larry Walker
Whether drifting across calm seas, exploring backwater lagoons of jungle rivers for exotic species, or battling giant marlin in raging seas, my intense passion for fishin’ has driven me to the far corners of the world. “From Minnows to Marlin” recounts my experiences on some of the most epic and extreme fishing adventures, chasing trophy fish in more than fifty-five countries. These aren’t your average ‘weekend with the boys’ type of excursions, although there are more than a few of those as well. These fishin’ safaris are driven by my intense wanderlust to explore every body of water imaginable in search of the next amazing trophy. Which sounds similar to my personal life, but I’ll leave that for another chapter or book!
"Larry is a quintessential ‘fishhead' and a true trailblazer in the fishing world. Larry is not one of those guys who likes to fish; he lives to fish. Some set out to catch as many fish as they can; Larry strives to catch the biggest fish – every time, all the time. He has an unquenchable thirst for all things fishing and a hunger to keep exploring and expanding his fishing knowledge. From Minnows to Marlin may have started as an accumulation of the highlights of Larry's fishing career, but it only scratches the surface of his fishing prowess. Larry continues to add to his incredible fishing accomplishments on a seemingly monthly basis. He does so not in a braggadocio manner, but with the enthusiasm of a kid catching their first good fish and the grace of someone who has worked hard every step of the way to make their fishing dreams a reality. He does it all with a big smile, a hardy dose of humor and a side of charm."

“Larry Walker and I go back to the 70s when I was doing appearances in Dallas, Texas at Walker Sporting Goods. Larry has always had an endless passion for fishing. He loves to fish for bass, and is very good (if not great) at it. I think the thing I like most about Larry is how much fun it is to fish with him. The next trip is always going to be the best and even if he has to spend hours fishing, it’s only a matter of time before he catches what he’s after! He loves life and lives it to the max and for Larry, fishing is life!”
