Any books for Pacific fishing and/or fish cooking?

I grew up lake fishing in Texas (catfish and bass) and fly fishing in Montana (trout).

Now I live in Taiwan and do all of my recreational fishing and sailing in Asia Pacific.

I've picked up a lot of tips here and there from other cruisers I've run into, but a lot of the tips I see seem to be superstition or other types of pseudoscience.

I'm hoping to find a guide or preferably a book I can bring on passages that show what fish I can expect to catch in my area, what I can/can't eat, what lures/line weight to use, etc.

Thanks in advance for any info.

Hi crybllrd,
it's probably not exactly what you are looking for but I found this book gives a good overview to fishing while sailing / cruising:


The Cruiser's Handbook of Fishing
by Scott Bannerot and Wendy Bannerot


You can find it on Amazon or other bookstores..


Cheers Patrick

This actually looks perfect!

Unfortunately I can't preview a few pages to be sure, but I think it'll do just fine.

Thanks a lot!

Abebooks.com has the Bannerot book cheaper than Amazon. They have millions of books, sometimes very cheap.

Yup seems to be working now, and the price+shipping to Taiwan is very reasonable. Thanks for the suggestion!
