Getting bit is a great bath room read. . .

Short and something new learned everyday.

Why all the books professor?

why not write your own? mine's titled "how not to fish dana point for halibut" a local's guide to getting skunked on every outing.

Look for it on amazon really soon.

Not local fishing, but interesting if you are into novels about the ocean.

Check out these two.

Thanks. At this point I can take all the pointers I can get. I'll see you on the water we'll plan it.

Jorge just makes it look too easy.

Moby Dick? I know someone who read that when he was 8...

Old Man and the Sea? Required reading. Have a couple First Editions, so does Clay...

Hooked; Pirates, Poaching and the Perfect Fish
(how the Chilean Sea Bass got its name)

The Secret Life of Lobsters

The Hungry Ocean: A Swordboat Captain's Journey
(this will shock the MLPA kooks)

Adrift? I agree, required reading...

Or for local fishing tips and techniques, the other posts have nailed it.

Don't forget the Perfect Storm either. Horrid movie, amazing book.

Kon Tiki is another great ocean adventure. Not specifically about fishing, but a ton of great fishing none the less.
