Martha's Vineyard Fish Tales: How to Catch Fish, Rake Clams, and Jig Squid, with Entertaining Tales About the Sometimes Crazy Pursuit of Fish

The focus is on Marthaâ€™s Vineyard but the information, fishing tips, and stories about Island charactersâ€”Bob â€œHawkeyeâ€ Jacobs jumping off Memorial Wharf to unsnag an albie he hookedâ€”will sound familiar to anyone who has spent time in a community of fishermen.

This informative and fun read answers the questions asked in local tackle shops, including the best spots to catch a striped bass on a fly rodâ€”Lobsterville Beachâ€”and rigging tackle for blues, fluke, black sea bass, false albacore, and bonito. Spin fishing, bottom fishing, and fly fishing are all covered.

This book follows the island fishing seasons: rods appear on island trucks in April, a sign that schoolies have arrived, and they do not begin to disappear until the venerable Bass and Bluefish Derby, five weeks of single-minded pursuit of fish, ends in October.

And there are tips on looking and talking the part . . . â€œhandy phrases include any reference to a falling or rising tide and a rock, any rock, as long as you refer to it with a sense of authority so that the other person is unwilling to ask which rock for fear of seeming like a novice.â€

Marthaâ€™s Vineyard Fish Tales is a â€œhow toâ€ book that flows with the character and personality of a fishing-obsessed island off the coast of Massachusetts.
