Full of great fishing knowledge for the beginner and advanced saltwater angler. Covers fishing with live/natural/artificial baits from boat/shore using various methods. Imparts practical knowledge that can only be gained from years of experience.

This is an outstanding read and a very useful guide for fishing bluefish, stripers (called rock in my region), fluke (flounder), and weakfish. This easy reading book offers practical advice for fishing from boat or shore, live bait or artificials and details techniques I know work and others I can't wait to try. It also features very useful information on too often overlooked subjects of cleaning and cooking your catch. I highly recommend this book.

This book is full of information that will help put you and your friends into some good fishing. The information ranges from fishing on rental boats in a small saltwater bay to offshore trips for big gamefish and even provides recipes for your catch from Milt's lifelong fishing companion and wife, June. One of the highlights of the book is the use of photography chronicling his tactics as a "jetty jock" in order to land the coveted lunker Striped Bass that cruise the Northeast coast every April to December from the Cheasapeake bay, Virginia to New England. There are even some photos revealing his commitment to teaching and imparting his fishing "know how" to his grandaughters on small skiffs. Rosko has been fishing for more than 60 years and he has culled the best of his knowledge gained over six decades into this 288 page handbook for successful angling! He covers all the coasts but is especially strong in his homegrown territory, the Northeast coast. It makes a great gift for someone who has a passion for fishing or a budding gift for fishing. I bought one for me and one for my newest fishing disciples.
