R.J. Decker, star tenant of the local trailer park and neophyte private eye, is fishing for a killer. Thanks to a sportsman's scam that's anything but sportsmanlike, there's a body floating in Coon Bog, Florida-and a lot that's rotten in the murky waters of big-stakes, large-mouth bass tournaments.

Not my favorite submitted by llwalsh on July 1, 2014, 6:47am I've read every adult book written by Hiassen, and while his style and humor are still wonderful in this book, I must say it is my least favorite. However, I have no previous experience with bass fishing tournaments, so this might be much more fun if you're a fan of fishing and can enjoy Hiassen's take on game fishing.
Hooked by chapter 3 submitted by Kikumatsu97 on July 6, 2015, 12:14am this has been Such a great start to a new Author of fiction for my husband and I.We've been enjoying reading it together and I'M excited to get some Other books by Hiassen.
Fishing Miami submitted by weibullk on August 6, 2015, 7:25pm Always fun to read a book by Hiassen. No fishing experience needed.

Very-Hiaasen-y submitted by AGAPHD on June 25, 2020, 8:22pm If you like Hiaasen's other books, you'll probably like this. It's his usual mix of cultural critique and off-beat humor.
