Just got the book today and read it cover to cover. It definitely tackles some long held beliefs.
I found the section regarding silence in the boat particularly beneficial because I can be a little loud at times.
I think it does a good job relating information on reservoirs. I think that anglers who primarily fish river systems might need to take the differences in water bodies into account.
Josh there are a couple of typos... One on page 27 (angles instead of anglers) and 2 more in the table on page 110 (crankbiat)
It's definitely worth ordering. Josh keeps things to a point. Excellent read.

2/3 of the way through; Well written, enjoyable to read, and to the point/no fluff. The first third of the book does an excellent job summarizing, analyzing, and extrapolating from prior studies. The data analysis in the last 2/3 is the new ground. Easy to read data tables, charts, and graphs. The book covers strategies for catching numbers and size. The book includes so much information in a well written, concise manner; I can't think of a better book as a primer on bass fishing. It will certainly influence how and when I fish.

Thanks for the positive feedback guys. As a first time author it is nerve wracking not knowing if people will like your work. It's a huge weight off my shoulders to hear folks find it interesting! I'll get the minor typos fixed soon. So far the whole process has far exceeded my expectations. It's been a lot of fun. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them. Thanks again.

Where can I get this book? The easiest place is on Amazon. Just search "High Percentage Fishing". If you are a prime member you can get free shipping. I should also have a kindle version up before the end of the week.

I have ordered in the hopes that this is the Moneyball of fishing.
Josh, have you considered who you want to play you in the movie?
