It is not saltwater based, but for first rate literature with a fishing theme try Jerry Dennis. He has two collections of short stories "A Place on the Water", and "The River Home". Very, good stuff.

"Something's Fishy" by Ted Williams...expertly researched and written stuff about fisheries management with a bit of quick witted humor. Its a compilation of his past works. The stuff on striped bass is a must read for all.
Been reading "Walden" too...its pretty deep and my shallow mind cannot absorb it all at once, but hey, I just read the same page a few times and it begins to sink in.
Plenty of Dr. Suess with the kids too...

Just read Walden not too long ago myself. Cant believe I didnt do it sooner! Good read and gives you plenty to think about when it comes to your daily life.
I started Into Thin Air (thought I wouldnt be able to put it down after Into the Wild but its not as enthralling to me I guess) and after that the next winter read will be The Maine Woods.
Nothing new on the agenda....still trying to get through some of the classics and such.... |

I'll probably re-read Striper by John Cole, some chapters from Striped Bass Fishing by Woolner and Lyman and a few of the selections in the Hemingway on Fishing compilation.
Re-read / study some chapters in The Fisherman's Ocean
I'm surprised to see a few people praise / recommend The Big One. I found it to be very poorly written and didn't like it much at all. Maybe it just wasn't my style of writing.

This is a good book - New England Stripers - it's an anthology of some of the best stories from On The Water Magazine's early years. There's some of Flaptail's writing in it also...Amazon, On The Water, and I sell it.... |
