Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LAKE AND STREAM GAME FISHING - A Practical Book on the Popular Fresh-Water, Game Fish, the Tackle Necessary and How to Use It - BY DIXIE CARROLL - 1919 - PREFACE - In writing this book of fish, fishing, tackle and how to use it, as well as incidental remarks on equipment it is not the intention of the writer to set it up on a pinnacle as a hollier than thou book. Opinions on tackIe and the method of using it are varied and at times wonderful. There are purists in every angle of the sport and by each method of angling the purist in that particular line wiIl swear by the nine gods and at times swear at and other methods. I have never allied myself to any one particular part of angling. I can have equally as much enjoy- ment from tossing the plug, live bait or feathery fly. As Iong as it is fishing in a sportsman-like manner with line, rod and reel and playing the fish until it comes up to the net or gaff, white-side up, I consider the game true sport and worthy of just con- sideration. As to the methods of angling and the handling of tackle advocated herein, they are the methods that I have found to be successful from actual experiences of my own or from the experiences of other fisher- men with tvhorn I have cast and whipped lake and stream. As to the information on the habits and peculiari- ties of the different game fish, this I have accumulated since my early fishing days passed an the Potomac and its tributaries, and from close association with keen guides and woodsmen of the North Woods country. I feel that the fishing game is on the verge of becoming the most popular of out-doors sports and it can be made so, not only for the present day, but for the years to come, if the fishermen will follow the creed of the American Anglers League of which I have the honor of being president. This creed follows and I earnestly hope fishermen will burn this thought into their memory and in time................
Download or read book Fishing for Spotted Seatrout written by Jan Stephen Maizler and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Despite having fished seatrout for years, I hadn't any idea how much I didn't know until I read Maizler's definitive new work on the species."--Doug Olander, editor in chief, Sport Fishing Magazine "Maizler's name has been inexorably linked to seatrout for decades. This book is an overdue, welcome, and essential addition to our angling literature. Kudos to the master "--Glenn Law, executive editor, Salt Water Sportsman Magazine "From seatrout habits to state-by-state seatrout fishing techniques, Maizler covers everything one needs to know with regard to becoming a successful angler for this popular species."--Tommy L. Thompson, author of The Saltwater Angler's Guide to Tampa Bay and Southwest Florida Known as "everyman's fish," the spotted seatrout is one of the top ten species for recreational fishing in the United States. In Fishing for Spotted Seatrout, Jan Maizler, a world-renowned light tackle expert, shares more than 30 years' experience and innovative tactics for catching this popular fish in its range from the Carolinas to Texas. For beginners, he offers an overview of the unique characteristics and habits of the spotted seatrout. For more seasoned fishermen, he presents an in-depth analysis of the different tackle, baits, techniques, and tidal conditions for achieving the best catches. A chapter on weather and season will help ensure angling success, regardless of conditions the calendar brings. Maizler discusses chumming--a technique widely applied in other fisheries but mostly unknown for seatrout--and recommends the paddleboard, the newest vessel for hunting the spotted king. He also explores region-specific practices like wading, prevalent in Texas, and trolling live shrimp, common in Biloxi Marsh, and argues that their use can and should extend beyond these regions. Moreover, he demonstrates how to apply these new techniques on your next fishing expedition. Covering every aspect of angling for this magnificent gamefish, Maizler's comprehensive guide belongs on your bookshelf and in your tackle bag.

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 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Fish's Eye: Essays about Angling and the Outdoors, Ian Frazier 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 Flordia keys, in the trout streams of the Rocky Mountains. He marvels at the fishing in the turbid Ohio River by downtown Cincinatti, where a good bait for catfsh 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 How to Think Like a Fish written by Jeremy Wade and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The star of the Animal Planet's River Monsters and author of the bestselling companion book shares a meditation on fishing--and life. In his previous book, Jeremy Wade memorably recounted his adventures in pursuit of fish of staggering proportions and terrifying demeanor: goliath tigerfish from the Congo, arapaima from the Amazon, "giant devil catfish" from the Himalayan foothills, and more. Now, the greatest angling explorer of his generation returns to delight readers with a book of a different sort, the book he was always destined to write -- the distillation of a life spent fishing. As Jeremy's catches attract increasing attention, many people ask him how they can improve their own fishing results. This book is his reply: part science, part art, and part elusive something else -- which is within every angler's ability to develop. Along the way you will learn when to let instinct override logic, which details are vital and which may be irrelevant, and how a "non result" can be a result. Thoughtful and funny, brimming with wisdom and, above all, adventure, these are pitch-perfect reflections that anyone who has ever fished will identify with, for ultimately they touch on the simple, fundamental principles that apply to all angling -- and to life.
