Items related to The Fisherman's Ocean: How Marine Science Can Help...
"Reading Dave Ross's work will give you in-depth knowledge of the ocean, its processes, and marine fish, which can only make you a better saltwater angler."
--Joe Healy editor, Saltwater Fly Fishing
Here at last, in layman's terms, is a fisherman's guide to the habitat and behavior of saltwater fish. The author, an oceanographer and avid fly fisherman, explains the marine environment and the factors that affect where game fish congregate, how they move with tides and currents, what they see, smell, taste, and hear. The copiously illustrated text covers inshore and offshore habitat and will prove invaluable to anyone who fishes in saltwater, whether in the surf, on the flats, or out at sea. The ocean is vast. It pays to be educated.

From Booklist:
Ross clearly explains how marine science can help saltwater anglers catch more and bigger fish. The book's first and second parts describe, respectively, oceans and fish. In the final section, Ross, an oceanographer at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, takes the scientific concepts from the first two parts and applies them to fishing for a variety of species along the Atlantic, Pacific, and Gulf Coasts. Throughout, information is provided on new technology and boating and fishing safety. Books about the science of hunting or fishing are often lost on general readers, who won't tolerate the leaden style and dense content. Despite some repetition and the occasional confusing passage, Ross generally succeeds where his peers have failed, thanks to clear, even humorous prose and effective use of photographs and diagrams. This comprehensive yet accessible treatise will be of definite interest to anyone serious about saltwater angling. John Rowen
