'This directory of traditional striper fishing locations runs south to north pinning down the "Striper Coast" for surf fishers who want to know more about where the best beach fishing can be found. Each spot is rated 1 to 5 fish like movies and restaurants. Specific directions on how to drive to each listed place are revealed. Spots that are seasonally dependent have the best months listed. Methods, which are chosen by local tradition, are revealed. And conditions which make a hot spot a little better--a favorable wind or tide--are included. There is an interesting blurb on each location. Most of the spots have a local shop, with phone number, that you can call to inquire about the fishing. Those that don't offer an interesting and informative "tip" on surf fishing.

Rather than a curl up and read type of book, this is more of a directory. However, any surf fisher who is traveling to unfamiliar territory will find Hot Spots an invaluable reference with amazingly accurate details that can make the difference in your fishing. Hot Spots> has had a revision and 6 printings.

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING:

I recently started fishing quite a bit of the cape and found this book to be an excellent resource. There are some parts where directions are somewhat vague, but it basically gets you in the area. I have also fished a little bit of Ct and NJ, and found most of the information accurate and insightful. Cross reference with other resources and you should find fish and parking.

Wasque Point / Martha`s Vineyard, October 23, 1998
"During the day I have caught the most fish ever at thislocation. Mostly blues but some bass. 20-25 fish in an afternoon.FUN

The key to successful surfcasting here is getting the most distance possible out of your cast. I use a 12ft rod, new 20lb test, and a 40 lb mono shock leader (tied correctly) with 4oz. metal during the day; sometimes white painted metal with a white rubber tail help with the bass during the day.

I have seen a distance of 20-30 feet on a cast make the difference between an instant hook-up and casting again.

The cost related to getting to wasque is getting more and more expensive every year. During the Summer months fishermen are evan charged to walk on the property. If you have a four wheel drive, and plan fishing the spot with four or more people, for a couple days or more, opt for the 4-wheel oversand permit, (not cheap and more $$ every year) but worth it..."

Gold - from the meister beach striperman!, February 21, 1996
"Frank Daignault has set out the great spaces for striped bass fishing without the angles that usually go with giving up a spot. This is great encyclopaedic stuff from the master who earned his cloth as a great teacher and father and author of Twenty Years on the Cape! Get that book and read it!" --A READER
