3.0 out of 5 stars Its OK...a little disapointing from the guys at SWS, April 11, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Striped Bass Fishing: Salt Water Strategies (Salt Water Sportsman) (Hardcover)

OK, I am a bassoholic, I admit it. I have just about every book on striped bass and have fished it almost exclusively for near 38 years from shore and boat from Nantucket to Virginia (but 90% in NE).
This book was a little bit of a let down for me. I get SWS and figured this would be the modern day defacto-standard complete works on how-to. But is is just an introduction IMO. There could be a lot more details. It is worth it if you are not familiar fishing for stripers and want a quick lesson, and there are some decent sections and good basic info but there are other books that are far more interesting and have more detailed info.
I bought it, read it and it sits on the shelf...haven't opened it since.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good overview, July 11, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Striped Bass Fishing: Salt Water Strategies (Salt Water Sportsman) (Hardcover)

I am new to surfcasting and found the book to be a good overall source of information about fishing for Stripah. It's a good source for someone breaking into the sport.

The book has some great illustrations and covers everything from migration to location to baits and rigs to conservation.

A nice book to pass to my son in a few years.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Striper Coffee Table Book, July 7, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Striped Bass Fishing: Salt Water Strategies (Salt Water Sportsman) (Hardcover)

Not quite as pretty as a some fly fishing coffee table books, but beautiful pictures and finally a fishing book with recepies.

Format is a little choppy with the multi-author approach, with some redundancies.
