winter reading

[BassDawg]

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!!

these are all good suggestions and I denfinitely want to read Zeno's book this winter. right now though, I'm in striper-detox. I watched OTW TV this weekend and they were catching good stripers with pogies and I was starting to feel the striper withdrawels coming on, so I had to turn it off. I try to avoid the striper-withdrawel until at least February or I might go insane and try to fish for holdovers or something!!!

"The River Why" not sure of the author

I haven't gotten very far into river why but it is supposed to be very good.

David James Duncan. One of my favorite books of all time.

I also love:

The Old Man and the Sea- Hemingway

The Perfect Storm- Junger

All Fisherman are Liars- Linda Greenlaw

The Highest Tide - Lynch

These aren't "technique" or "how to" books, but rather great stories.
