Description
A how-to book for surfcasters, Striper Surf is a compilation of information on striper fishing methods which include fishing with baits, plugging, rigging an eel, and fly fishing. Four parts, "Locating Stripers -- Where and How"; "Surf Tackle and Equipment"; "Methods"' and "Striped Bass -- Trends, Traits and Behavior." This last section contains a fascinating 50 pg. section on the natural history of this most popular species. Comparisons of today's linesides with the so-called "good old days"' and a dreamy look at what has been experienced in the past with the truly huge -- some over 100 pounds -- moby stripers.
Daignault is the last of a dying breed who knew and fished with the legends of heady days when surfcasting was in its infancy. Things that have never been written anywhere are revealed about striper behavior and evidence of their presence. As a result, Daignault has an almost cult following in his well-storied "striper surf."
