Book excerpt: Sometimes the wildest fishing happens right in your own town-or in the city you happen to be visiting Some of fly-fishing's most gifted writers proclaim the joys and rewards of fishing urban waters Shelves of books have been written about the ultimate fly-fishing experience: the trip to remote, pristine waters where fish are plentiful and wild. But sometimes there's good fishing to be found right down the street, in the most unlikely of settings. These writers share stories about the fish they've found in the midst of Manhattan, London, Tokyo, and Paris. Fishing a manmade lake in the suburbs of Minnesota, a park pond in New Jersey, in suspect rivers within sight of factories in Buffalo and Oakland, they steal an hour or two and go off to fish where they can, when they can, because they can't not fish. This unorthodox collection reveals what true fishermen understand: good fishing is to be had anywhere you can find it.

Although there are smaller areas like parks with lakes and ponds the bulk of the angling done here is in salt water or brackish water (lower Hudson River). Each of the park lakes and ponds are detailed for the Five Boroughs with some maps available with them. Most of the smaller ponds and lakes have very limited fishing in them, due partly to the heavy fishing pressure and also their small size. Each of the lakes listed will show the information about the lake or pond and also the fishing possibilities in them. ALL of the lakes and ponds within the New York Metropolitan area detailed here on these pages are strictly catch and release and no fish may be kept or possessed from any of the lakes. There are also other various restrictions that are detailed below for them under the SPECIAL FISHING REGULATIONS section. The lakes and ponds are listed starting with the Bronx (Bronx County), Manhattan (New York County), Staten Island (Richmond County), Brooklyn (Kings County) and then Queens and Queens County. Most of the parks are available from mass transit such as subways or busses but often a short walk of slightly longer hike is needed from the nearest bus stop or subway station to reach these areas. There is very limited stream or creek fishing in the city, better out in Nassau and Suffolk Counties on Long Island or above the city up through the Catskills. Each of the counties outside of the New York metropolitan area is detailed separately with all of the fishing possibilities in them and are or will be available soon.

Book excerpt: “A necessary book for anyone truly interested in what we take from the sea to eat, and how, and why.” —Sam Sifton, The New York Times Book Review Acclaimed author of American Catch and The Omega Princple and life-long fisherman, Paul Greenberg takes us on a journey, examining the four fish that dominate our menus: salmon, sea bass, cod, and tuna. Investigating the forces that get fish to our dinner tables, Greenberg reveals our damaged relationship with the ocean and its inhabitants. Just three decades ago, nearly everything we ate from the sea was wild. Today, rampant overfishing and an unprecedented biotech revolution have brought us to a point where wild and farmed fish occupy equal parts of a complex marketplace. Four Fish offers a way for us to move toward a future in which healthy and sustainable seafood is the rule rather than the exception.

Download or read book The Fish s Eye written by Ian Frazier and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2003-03-01 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Fish's Eye: Essays about Angling and the Outdoors, Ian Frazier "A Great Storyteller" (Newsweek), and one of the "American Originals" (Washington Post Book World) explores his lifelong passion for fishing, fish, and the aquatic world. He sees the angler's environment all around him-in New York's Grand Central Station, in the cement-lined pond of a city park, in a shimmering bonefish flat in the Florida keys, in the trout streams of the Rocky Mountains. He marvels at the fishing in the turbid Ohio River by downtown Cincinnati, where a good bait for catfish is half a White Castle french fry. The incidentals of the angling experience, the who and the where of it, interest him as much as what he catches and how. The essays (including the famous profile of master angler Jim Deren, late proprietor of New York's tackle store, the Angler's Roost) contain sharply focused observations of the American outdoors, a place filled with human alterations and detritus that somehow remains defiantly unruined. Frazier's simple love of the sport lifts him to straight -ahead angling description that are among the best contemporary writing on the subject. The Fish's Eye brings together twenty years of heartfelt, funny, and vivid essays on a timeless pursuit where so many mysteries, both human and natural, coincide.

Download or read book City of the Sharp Nosed Fish written by Peter Parsons and published by Weidenfeld & Nicolson. This book was released on 2012-10-18 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How an ancient rubbish dump has given us a unique view of life 2,000 years ago In 1897 two Oxford archaeologists began digging a mound south of Cairo. Ten years later, they had uncovered 500,000 fragments of papyri. Shipped back to Oxford, the meticulous and scholarly work of deciphering these fragments began. It is still going on today. As well as Christian writings from totally unknown gospels and Greek poems not seen by human eyes since the fall of Rome, there are tax returns, petitions, private letters, sales documents, leases, wills and shopping lists. What they found was the entire life of a flourishing market-town - Oxyrhynchos ( the `city of the sharp-nosed fish' ), - encapsulated in its waste paper. The total lack of rain in this part of Egypt had preserved the papyrus beneath the sand, as nowhere else in the Roman Empire. We hear the voices of barbers, bee-keepers and boat-makers, dyers and donkey-drivers, weavers and wine-merchants, set against the great events of late antiquity: the rise and fall of the Roman Empire and the coming of Christianity. The result is an extraordinary and unique picture of everyday life in the Nile Valley between Alexander the Great in 300 BC and the Arab conquest a thousand years later.
