Light Tackle Kayak Trolling the Chesapeake Bay: A Guide to Gear, Location and Trolling Tactics for Striped Bass is the first book devoted exclusively to this exciting sport. Advances in kayak technology have made catching trophy striped bass a reality of which many anglers are not aware. Shallow water, stealth, light tackle and huge fish make this not only the most productive but also the most exciting method of catching striped bass that I know. Throughout this book you will learn everything that you need to land the big one. The guide starts with the basics of necessary gear and finishes up with seasonal “micro” and “macro” pattern development that will give you home field advantage on your favorite body of water. Specific topography is discussed as well as which areas to target when looking at a nautical chart. Lure selection is covered in depth, and you may be surprised to learn what the really big fish like best.The tactics explained in this book help those in kayaks or any other boat pare down vast expanses of water into personally discovered hot spots. The lessons taught can be easily understood and adopted. Study them, then immediately put them to use through trial and error to yield maximum benefit. The book, while concise, is content dense. Seasonal movements of striped bass, an understanding of forage, how to set up a kayak for trolling, trolling tactics, trolling with friends and chart usage are some of the main topics Alan covers. He also throws in his personal topography maps of the Susquehanna Flats, which will be extremely popular!This book appears to be narrowly focused on the striped bass fishery of Maryland's Chesapeake Bay. However, even if you've never set foot in the state of Maryland, or seen tidal waters where striped bass swim, you can still benefit from this book. It's a recipe for locating fish wherever you paddle or pedal a kayak. It applies to bass, perch and crappie fishing on reservoirs. It could even help you locate trout or walleye on the Great Lakes. Read it with an open mind with regard to the species and fisheries discussed, and adopt the methods to your local fishery.The book is packed with illustrations for the purpose of helping the reader understand under water topography, trolling routes, gear arrangement, lure and kayak selection. The many photos of HUGE FISH prove the worth of Alan's methods.This book will become a reference on your shelf that you use over and over again. For those that have fished with Alan, you know that he pulls no punches, keep no secrets and has a sincere desire to help you catch fish. He's written this book in that same spirit. He believes that helping each other will always come back to you. When we all catch big fish we create big memories, and that grows into big friendships. Look for him trolling his kayak on the bay!162 pages full of tips, locations and strategies

One could spend a lifetime fishing the Chesapeake Bay Bridge and still not uncover all of its secrets. Progressively building knowledge, skills, and abilities through hands-on experience under varying conditions is necessary to learn how to fish it through the range of constantly changing physical and environmental conditions. But understanding the structure itself as a starting point is a huge challenge. The Author jump starts acquisition of local knowledge about the subsurface structure by providing illustrated details that would otherwise take years of on-the-water experience to develop. This book, with a foreword by light-tackle kayak fisherman and author Alan Battista, is designed for recreational fishermen who are new to fishing the bridge and more experienced fishermen who only get to go there occasionally. There are also details that will interest Bridge fishing veterans. The details take a lot of the mystery out of what lies below the surface by peeling back the veil on where to explore this, the largest piece of fishing structure in Maryland. Different piling types, holes, and rock piles are highlighted and some ideas about how to fish it are given. An illustrated discussion of current and structure interactions goes beyond common understandings of what happens below the surface. Essential safety practices including when and when not to fish are also featured. Whether new to fishing the Bay Bridge or a veteran, the insights and tips inside will assist you in finding and fishing there for striped bass.

A hands-on artificial reef builder, recreational boater, and sport-fisherman explores natural and artificial fishing reefs, ruins, wrecks, and obstructions in the Chesapeake Bay and tidal Potomac River, from Pooles Island in the Upper Bay to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel, and also in the upper tidal Potomac River. He discusses how, where, and what to look for from a sport fisherman's perspective, and walks readers through armchair use of modern tech websites to scout fishing hotspots. Continuing the illustrated narrative voyage begun in "Bridges Under Troubled Waters: Upper Chesapeake and Tidal Potomac Fishing Reefs" (2018), this second volume in the series with a Foreword by Lenny Rudow, expands coverage of shoreline structures, natural and artificial bottom structures, wrecks, and obstructions where striped bass, redfish, speckled trout, cobia, and other predators forage in Maryland. There's also full coverage of Virginia's Bay artificial reefs with graphic layouts plus details about nearby natural structure, wrecks and obstructions. The location and configuration of rediscovered "lost" and "bandit" artificial reefs and wrecks are disclosed along with a selection of natural features not shown on nautical charts. Also covered are ruins of lost lighthouses, compromised and failing shore protection structures, submerged fallen timber, disappearing islands, and Reef Balls at fishing reefs and oyster restoration sites. Reef descriptions are supported by a selection of pictures, sonar imaging, and computer-generated graphics to aid in visualizing specific reef structures and layouts. Designed for jump-starting the acquisition of local knowledge about light-tackle fishing structure by casual and journeyman sport fisherman, there are jewels of information inside for sportfishing veterans as well, including underwater pictures and sonar-scan images contributed by guides and sonar and side-imaging enthusiasts. A selection of color graphics used to produce the greyscale images in the book are found on the Facebook page for this series, "Chesapeake Bay Fishing Reefs", and featured in previews and excerpts by the author found on the FishTalk Magazine Where to Fish webpage. This is first and foremost a book for fisherman that provides practical methods to find and prospect structure that attracts sport fish, while also drawing on lessons from the author's Coast Guard service and Bay restoration and fishing experience to encourage boating and fishing safety.

This book describes my philosophy toward fishing -- the Fishing Comfort Zone. First, there are many different techniques and ways in which to fish. Second, there are many styles of rods and reels that are suited for different types of fishing. Likewise, there are hundreds of different types of soft and hard plastic, metal, and wooden lures. Third, fishing is available at thousands of locations in fresh and salt water, in rivers, lakes, bays, and oceans. Most fishermen have fishing spots close to home or may choose to travel to find other interesting spots. It is not possible for any person to fish in all ways with all types of tackle at all locations. After having fished in many types of settings, I have determined which methods, tackle, and locations are my preferred ones. These make up my fishing comfort zone. I also learned which ones I do not enjoy as much. The book begins with a description of the concept of the fishing comfort zone and explains the experiences I had and the learning I did to reach my current comfort zone. Next the book describes common types of rods, reels, and lures with a discussion of why I use particular ones. Separate chapters explain how I practice casting, jigging, light tackle trolling, and fishing with bait from my center console boat and my fishing kayaks. I have been fishing from kayaks for the past 15 years and find that each year I make more of my fishing trips in the kayaks. The book includes three chapters on kayak fishing that discuss how to select a kayak that is right for you and how to add accessories to make your fishing more comfortable and productive. This book offers tips on how to fish successfully with light tackle from small boats and kayaks and how to learn the types of fishing that make up your fishing comfort zone.
