Is there a cure for snook fever?

“I’ve landed plenty of snook with a light bait-casting outfit. Don’t fish for snook any other way. You can cane pole ’em with heavy lines off piers and bridges, or troll for ’em. But I like to scrub the bushes and make ’em hit top-water plugs.” This was how Cal Stone introduced the author to light tackle fishing many decades ago in the waters of south Florida.

Steer through twisted mangrove channels, dodge “noggin-knockers” and oyster bars on outgoing tides, and join author Max Hunn as he brawls with tarpon and tangles with snook and redfish, mostly in the Ten Thousand Islands country.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. A Florida fishing history lesson By Gerald Broucek Max Hunn has obviously forgotten more about fishing in Florida than I will probably ever know. His book is a wonderful collection of stories from days when slot and bag limits were unknown and sport fishing was practiced by only an adventerous few. If you fish SW Florida or Everglades National Park you will hear many familiar names, and maybe learn a few new ones. I have used his descriptions to go to places in the park that I never knew existed and found them to be accurate. His descriptions of tecniques used then work just as well today as they did for him when he wrote his articles. Sadly some of the spots he describes have been overtaken by development, but many of the ones in Everglades National Park, both in the Ten Thousand Islands and Flamingo are still there and still producing. With the fishing excesses of the 70's and 80's they may not produce like they did for Max, but they are definitely worth the trip. Whether you fish the Park or not, this book is a great read!

Marlin fishing may be the most exhilarating experience in the world. Al is a beautiful woman, who, at the risk of drawing the ire of evil, otherworldly, karmic forces, proclaims to be “very good at fishing” , while stating that “she is going to catch a marlin, I just know it.” Al’s Marlin is the story of what happens in the quest to fulfill the dream of catching a marlin. It is a story about fishing, life, and Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. It is a narrative exploration of the excitement, build up and execution of an incredible, nearly life changing experience. It is a feel good story of irony, humor, and wonderment. You will not believe how it turns out. It also happens to be true. It is a short story.

Richardson As a seasoned fisherman and author, Stark provides a wonderful tongue-in-cheek snapshot of one of angling's greatest challenges--the capture and release of one's first marlin. The essence of this story, set in the sunny backdrop of Cabo San Lucas, is one of optimism in facing the facts that if something can go wrong, it will most likely happen on a fishing boat.

On the Trail in France, by Ronald Kenyon

Free Ebook On the Trail in France, by Ronald Kenyon

Many tourists who visit Paris wish they could discover the real France, the hidden France they have read about in novels and seen in paintings at museums. They would like to visit charming villages, meet “real” French people and savor traditional French cuisine. But how to do it? And, for that matter, does this authentic France still exist? That real France, la France profonde, does exist. Having lived for many years in Paris and speaking fluent French, I know the country well. I love France and the French people and have written this book to share what I have learned. You can follow along as I describe my walks on sections of the 180,000-kilometer network of blazed trails crisscrossing France. In the first nine chapters of this book I recount the experiences I have had walking in nine very distinct regions of France. Individual chapters are devoted to Auvergne, Finistère—the westernmost part of Brittany, Alsace, the Cévennes Mountains, Provence, Rouergue, the Loire Valley, Emblavez and a section of the pilgrimage trail to Santiago de Compostela—the Way of Saint James. Much of On the Trail in France is devoted to unexpectedly encountering total strangers, enjoying French food and wine, appreciating nature in all its beauty and fury and exploring the French—and other—languages. I met many unforgettable characters, young and old, named and nameless. Elderly raconteurs in Auvergne and Provence. A saucy waitress in Alsace. Precocious children in Finistère and Provence. A Schoolmaster who wanted American pen-pals for his students. A bilingual lady novelist in the Gare de l’Est. Monsieur Prouff, always showing up in a different guise. A modern troubadour. Savvy businesswomen and sleepy soldiers. Students and chefs. Goatherds and dopers. A publican who was a painter. Winemakers and snail wranglers. A phony artist. Penniless pilgrims. They all pass through these pages. And I even had a brief encounter with a serial killer—without learning of his crimes until a year afterwards. It is almost impossible to write about France without writing about food, and it is through food that we may acquire an understanding of the elusive French character that both intrigues and thwarts us. It is through food that we may grasp the meaning of one of the defining characteristics of France, the mysterious notion of terroir, which I translate as “the soul of the soil.” During my walks I ate peasant fare at rough-hewn tables and gourmet cuisine in elegant dining rooms. Steaks and game. Morels and bilberries. Snails and skate. Jerusalem artichokes. Dishes with exotic names: pounti, far, bäckeofe, kouign aman, landjäger, pommes tapées. And who can know France without knowing her cheeses? I savored Munster and Pélardons and Cabicous, tommes and fourmes and pavés. I drank lambic apple brandy in Finistère and neya sussa wine less than a week old in Alsace. A beer brewed from buckwheat. I even tracked down a wine called Clinton. Visitors may be surprised at the diversity of languages, dialects and cultures evoked in these pages. I met people who could shift effortlessly from French into Breton, Alsatian, Occitan or Provençal. I even discovered one of the world’s least-known languages, Welche, that has nothing to do with Wales. On the Trail in France is a welcome guide for anyone in good health who practices recreational walking and desires to learn more about France and the French. It is my hope that these chapters will not only entertain and inform but encourage readers to venture off the beaten track to discover the human and natural treasures awaiting them. To start you on your way, I have included a compendium of practical information in a separate chapter entitled “Your Walk on the Trail in France.” As an additional enticement, I have included more than forty photographs illustrating some of the sights I saw...on the trail in France.

He completed his graduate studies at Stanford after receiving a Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship and at Saint Lawrence University under a National Defense Education Act scholarship. He was certified as a French-English liaison interpreter by the U.S. Department of State Office of Language Services. His writing began before he could write: at age four, he dictated stories to his aunts, who typed them up and stapled them together. Since 2012, he has published collections of poetry and essays as well as a biography in English and French of an eighteenth century French aristocrat, François Racine de Monville. Ronald W. Kenyon also developed an interest in photography at a young age. During the nineteen-seventies, when he was living in Paris, he experimented with numerous camera systems including the Rolleiflex, Leica and Nikon. He participated in a three-person show at the Galerie Noir-et-Blanc in Paris in November 1976, the 5th Salon d'Art Photographique in Rambouillet in 1977, and the Exposition “Camera” in Versailles in January 1978. His photography was awarded the Grand Prix by the Société Artistique of Fontenay-le-Fleury in 1977. In January 1980 he was chief photographer for a project to document traditional architecture in Asir Province, Saudi Arabia. Sixty-five of his photographs were exhibited at the First International Symposium on Islamic Architecture and Urbanism at King Faisal University in Dammam. Although nominally retired, Ronald W. Kenyon continues his writing and photography; projects in both areas are in progress.

If you love dogs and baseball-- and want to know what it's REALLY like to be the Bat Dog for the Trenton Thunder, the New York Yankees' Double-A minor league team-- this book is for you! After all, how many dogs work in a baseball stadium, are cheered by thousands of adoring fans-- and "rub noses" with many of the biggest stars in the game?DERBY! My Bodacious Life in Baseball is the exclusive, long-awaited autobiography of the Trenton Thunder's funny, famous four-legged baseball philosopher-- who just happens to be a golden retriever named Derby. The fans know him best from his public role: carrying players' bats from home plate back to the dugout during games. But behind the scenes at ARM & HAMMER Park, Derby is so much more than a Bat Dog. He's the young baseball players' unofficial coach, mentor, loyal friend, and "team psychologist". Whether you hit a walk-off homer, or strike out at the bottom of the 9th, Derby is always there to give you a friendly nudge of encouragement with his cold, wet nose. The Thunder's perennial All-Star, Derby is the furry face of the franchise and the team's true MVP (Most Valuable Pup). He's also the reigning king of a three-generation dynasty of Thunder Bat Dogs that began with his beloved, fondly remembered father, Chase. Derby follows in Chase's legendary pawsteps and-- as the "world's foremost expert on baseball and human behavior"-- doles out advice to his own adorable puppy and heir apparent Bat Dog, Rookie. Inside this lavishly illustrated 205-page gift book, which was created and published with the permission and generous cooperation of the legendary Trenton Thunder, you'll also find:

  • Derby's amazing story and insights.  
  • Literally HUNDREDS of never-before-seen COLOR PHOTOS by award-winning sports photographer Staton Rabin, providing a rare, candid inside-the-dugout peek at top Yankees prospects on the cusp of major league superstardom. Many of these rookies have since made it to "the Big Show", playing for the Yankees or other MLB teams. So if you're a true fan of the game, you'll know their names.  
  • Cameo appearances by Mariano Rivera and Reggie Jackson.
  • Mini-bios of the top players from the Trenton Thunder's historic 20th anniversary season, which featured many of the most gifted Yankees prospects in more than a decade. 
  • And, of course, lots of Bat Dog and puppy pictures.
Narrated in bodacious style by Derby himself and perfect for baseball-savvy tweens (if they can just pry the book away from YOU long enough to read it!), this autobiography is a unique, witty and poignant dog's-eye-view of the summer game and the remarkable human beings who play it. These young athletes spend years of their lives chasing their individual dreams of Big League stardom, but, thankfully, never forget that it's all about supporting their teammates-- and getting the win, today. With subtle themes about friendship between people of all different races and backgrounds, the importance of teamwork, and adjusting to change during the seasons of life, DERBY! My Bodacious life in Baseball is a book that young people-- especially fans of the Trenton Thunder and New York Yankees-- can savor and grow with over time. It not only captures iconic images of baseball's most celebrated dog and his family-- but also candid moments from the early careers of young pro baseball players who just might be destined to become legends of the game. This unique memoir is both a fun dog's "tail", and a treasure trove of memorabilia for baseball-crazy parents to share with their children and grandchildren. "Derby! Get the bat!"

About the Author A legend among baseball fans, HOME RUN DERBY ("DERBY" to his friends) is a talented, handsome, and well-groomed golden retriever and is proud to be the Official Bat Dog of the Trenton Thunder, the Double-A Affiliate team of the New York Yankees. Everyone in the MLB wants to pose for pictures with Derby-- even Hideki Matsui. Derby is also an international media star, and has been featured on ESPN and in "Yankees Magazine". Derby's job is to mentor and coach the Trenton Thunder baseball players, and provide encouragement and support. He also picks up the Thunder players' bats left at home plate in the first inning of the game and returns them to the dugout. Derby's late, beloved father, Chase, was the Thunder Bat Dog before him. Derby has one son, Rookie, and Rookie's mother is named Reba. Derby says that Rookie has his mother's floppy ears and affectionate nature, and his father's star quality. Derby was born in 2008. This is his first book.
