Now I am a bit biased when it comes to Tim’s work, as Tim is one of my closest friends. On a personal level it was a real treat for me to lend a hand whenever Tim needed me, be it with photos, ice fishing adventures or contribute pieces of content to the book.
The dedication, time and effort Tim put into this project absolutely blew me away but once I had the finished product in my hand it all made sense. This book kicks ass! I picked up a copy for my Dad when it first hit the shelves, it hasn’t left his coffee table.
While the content is second to none with input from the greatest ice anglers on the planet today the photography is what really sets this book apart. It is more than worthy to sit on anyone’s coffee table. Even if you don’t ice fish the photography is simply outstanding and of interest to anyone.
I’ve been lucky enough to have countless outings with Tim on ice and during open water season. Fishing with him is always a blast. Our fishing styles mesh well together but he’s also one of the funnest guys to spend time on the water with and has a wicked sense of humour. Our trip to Georgian Bay this fall was one of my 2010 highlights without a doubt.
One of the many perks to having Tim around is you know his camera is never far from his reach. While I try to do my best with my photos for our site, Tim’s just make me realize how much more I have to learn.
Here are some of the photos Tim has snapped for me over the years. Awesome stuff.
Birdee and I are real proud of ya dude. It’s been great to see your book be so well received by the angling public, and well it should! It’s a winner.
