FROM THE CRITICS
Library Journal
There is a mysterious hierarchy in game fish species; the same angling opinion that often places trout at the pinnacle of freshwater species accords striped bass the same honors among saltwater species. Daignault, a regular contributor to Field and Stream , has written a thoroughly useful and informative primer for the surf (i.e., nonboating) angler. His book can be used and enjoyed by tyros and old hands alike throughout the Maine to North Carolina range of the striper. Frank Woolner's Striped Bass (Lyons & Burford, 1983) and Phil Schwind's Striped Bass and Other Game Fish (Parnassus, 1972) are solid contributions to angling collections, but Daignault is essential for libraries catering to patrons afflicted with striper madness.--David Panciera, Westerly P.L., R.I.
