I received my copy of reading the water the other day from Joe and it was a great read. I have been trying to get a copy of it for the last 5 years but I was unwilling to pay more than $100 for it. I recommend it to anyone whether or not they have ever fished the Vineyard. It really got me excited for the upcoming season.

I like that book - and Joe's got it? :D

I posted when I first got it but I had a problem with my buy link..that has been resolved..

awesome book-

the chapter on Whit Manter was my favorite:D

How about that section on Roberto Germani (or something like that) he talks about sharks at Deep Hole?????? I fish that spot a lot in the pitch blackness. I'm a little spooked now.:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Got the book in the mail on Saturday. Read it cover to cover on the plane this week on a business trip. Very enjoyable and informative read. Thanks for posting.

thanks

#*#*$#@ Corrupt link....
Is fixed now...
:happy:

Got my much-anticipated copy in the mail yesterday. Like everyone else I was dying to read the book but didn't want to spend $100+. Glad I waited.

Took it with me when I got on the commuter train at 5 a.m. this morning. Normally on the hour-plus ride I nap. I started reading and put the book down reluctantly when I got into the station.

I think I'm going to lose some sleep tonite. MV is a place that haunts me, the only place in the world where I can say I really fished it hard and daydream about doing it over and over. I find myself visualizing the places mentioned in the book - the memories are so vivid - it's like I'm there again. :D

The paper back version is available on half.com for between $10.00 - $12.00.

just ordered the book cant wait till it gets here.

thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
