Default A good book to find

This was a great book I got it from the library one time. Its a book about all the fish this guy chased and his great stories behind them. I guarantee it one of the best books you ever read.

Fishing the Oregon Country. - AMES, FRANCIS H.

Oh yeah, it's a great read. It's really more of a nostalgic piece now.

Anyone read The Old Man and the Sea? Not a bad book by Hemmingway. About this old man going out to catch marlin. Hooks one and fights it for a week. Too bad its not true =)
