"Ship of Gold" by Gary Kinder. True account of the loss of a gold carrying passneger ship of the North Carolina coast in 1850s. Then turns to the attempt to locate and salvage the gold in deep ocean.
Nothing to do with fishing, but one of the best books I've ever read..
Also, "Shadow Divers", about deep water diving to locate and identify a wreck off of NJ.
"Giant Bluefin" an excellent story of the Cape Cod bluefin tuna fishery.

Every year I read, in no particular order:
"Striper Surf" by Frank Daignault ~definite page turner by an area LEGEND that is chocked full of pertinent trophy hunting techniques.
"On the Run" by David DiBenedetto ~lighter, though compelling, tales of the Striper Coast and The Fall Run.
"The Old Man and the Sea" by Ernest Hemingway ~nuff said, great for jump starting the Spring.
This year I will add:
"The Art of Surfcasting with Lures" by Zeno Hromin ~still reading and so far, so EXCELLENT!
"Stemming the Tides" by Charlie Soares ~dunno, but it sounds great
Two books by Tim Coleman, that I'm trying to remember the titles of???
And no off season would be compleat without popping into the DVD player a couple of times "Stripers Gone Wild" by Mike Laptew!!

I am reading The Zen of Fish by Trever Corson...which is pretty much everything you ever wanted to know about sushi and its history. This is not a fishing book. He also wrote a great book a couple years ago called the secret life of lobsters. ( I liked that one a lot)
l am also reading Charlie Soares new book "Stemming the tide". While not exactly a how-to it is more of a lifetime of knowledge book presented within many stories. I am enjoying it.
