Editorial Reviews
Product Description
Some 62 million people fish in America. For these people, the next best thing to fishing is swapping fish tales. Incredible Fishing Stories offers over 80 truly incredible fishing stories--world records, strange happenings, and the revenge of the fish. Author Shaun Morey traveled the world to interview anglers, boat captains, guides, and witnesses. You'll read about Captain Jimmy Lewis who, in a moment of sheer bravado (or insanity), speared by hand-and landed-a 1,600 pound hammerhead shark. Or the 800-pound blue marlin that made a final lunge-ripping up the deck and dragging a chair, with Paul Clause strapped to it, to the bottom of the ocean. (Paul survived; so did the marlin.) Here's one book that goes out to prove that truth is stranger than fiction. Photos and illustrations throughout.
From the Publisher
