Cruiser's Handbook of Fishing (hardcover)

The Cruiser's Handbook of Fishing
by Scott & Wendy Bannerot
List $34.95 / Net $20.00 (postage included)

'The definitive book' - "Cruising World". This is the complete guide to catching and cooking fish from the decks of a cruising boat. "The Cruiser's Handbook of Fishing" gives you everything you need to know about catching fish in tropical or middle-latitude seas - from a cruising boat underway or at anchor, from a dinghy, in the surf, and while diving reefs. Step by step this richly detailed guide walks you through: choosing, using, and maintaining tackle, lures, hooks, leaders, and other rigging essentials; reading currents, wind, wave patterns, tides, water temperature, and atmospheric conditions; modifying vessels with cruise-fishing enhancements such as rod holders, outriggers, cleaning tables, bait wells, and platforms; tying the best knots for cruise fishing; and, avoiding and treating routine fishing injuries and poisoning - including vital information on ciguatera, venomous stings and punctures, and steering clear of dangerous predators; identifying hundreds of fish species; preparing your catch - including a range of easy and delectable recipes; and much more.

'A great 'catch' - "Sailing".
'You want to catch fish? Read this book' - Herb McCormick, editor, "Cruising World".
'Jam-packed with solid advice on tackle and techniques proven to catch fish' - Barry Gibson, editor, "Salt Water Sportsman".
'Every culture has its bible, and until now, there wasn't one for the voyager who had a passion for catching fish' - "Ocean Navigator."
'Scott and Wendy are giving their fellow sailors the gift of an abundant life on the sea' - "Blue Water Sailing".
'A boatload of hard-earned knowledge and practical advice from a couple who has been there' - "Latitudes and Attitudes"

Re: Cruiser's Handbook of Fishing (hardcover)

Does it tell what to do with the fish once you've caught it? Is there a book that explains how to properly prepare various fish?

I've gotten good advice on both dressing out fish and recipes for cooking them from "A Seafood Celebration" by Sheryl and Mel London.

Re: Cruiser's Handbook of Fishing (hardcover)

** Explanation or what we are listing ***
I have failed to mention enough times that ALL of the stuff we are listing is from our boat and has been collected over the years when I could sail and cruise. My terminal cancer has ended all of that so we are trying to find a good home for the stuff. Since quite a bit of it is "old" and no longer available or made, we thought cruisers might be interested - especially if you had one and now would like to replace your broken one with an exact or near duplicate.
