The exceptional angler Weston Fowleróhe won his first tarpon tournament at the age of nine and a few years later caught a 1,000-pound tiger shark. And Terrie Allen, whose catch made it to the front page of the Los Angeles Examiner: Girl 105 Pounds Bags 103-pound Bass All By Herself. Plus lucky first-times, kids fishing since they were toddlers, father-daughter teams, and the two brothers who netted a fine rainbowóout of a water snakeís mouth.

Customer Reviews

A Crazy Book!
This book is really awesome! You cannot believe the stories Shaun Morey has in his book. A six-year-old tiny little girl fighting a gigantic 76 pound salmon! Wow! That was just one story wait until you read the others.

DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY?

On their first trip to Alaska a couple also embarks on another first - a salmon fishing expedition. The novice fisherman has a strike, a hard hit that begins a struggle with a salmon that lasts more than 37 hours.

Sound like a "fish story"? Well, it is, but it's a true one. Rather than putting together a collection of apocryphal fish stories, Shaun Morey has compiled a creel full of unusual amazing true fish stories in a compact 143 page volume that's fun to read.

In addition to phonographs, the book is sparked with lively illustrations and little known facts about our piscatorial pals.
