Gofron, a life-long resident of Antioch, Ill., holds Championship victories and multiple tournament wins, Angler of the Year titles, most walleye tournament top-10 place finishes, most money won in walleye tournaments, and is one of the most capable anglers at discovering walleyes in “all the wrong places.”
Reading Gofron’s book is a look back at what created a walleye fishing machine.
He found early success in tournaments, trapping and excavating; he also enjoyed the income each career provided. Through Mike’s eyes, anglers will understand how he “takes apart” a lake. He describes how homework leads to on-water success. He talks about shallow walleye tactics that seem diametrically opposed to the popular wisdom.
He thinks! Some say like a fish. Hall of Fame Angler Al Lindner, one of the most recognized faces from TV shows, the seminar stage and magazines said, “Mike’s overall performance speaks for itself. He absolutely ranks among the top of all walleye anglers. He possesses an excellent set of skills combined with great instincts.”
Reading and understanding what makes Gofron “tick” reveals the details that will give students of the walleye game a step up on their fishing buddies.
Copies of the book are available at $12.95 each plus $3 shipping and handling. Order from Mike Gofron, 25888 Oak Ave., Antioch, IL 60002. Or, order online at www.mikegofron.com.
Quotes From Mike’s Book: “Walleyes can’t bite if you don’t give them the chance.”
“With no other fishermen in the family, what I learned on my own proved to be the guiding light.”
“Why does it seem we work harder every day just to accomplish half of what we did as teens?”
“Many walleye myths still exist, even though tournaments have dispelled most of them.”
“Never make the mistake of saying, “This is where I’ll go, and this is what I’ll do.”
“My favorite depths are six inches (yes inches) of water to eight feet.”
