Book Description
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.

Book Description
Reef ecosystems extend throughout the tropics. Exploited by small-scale fishers, reefs supply food for millions of people, but, worldwide, there are growing worries about the productivity and current state of these ecosystems. Reef fish stocks display many features of fisheries elsewhere. However, habitat spatial complexity, biological diversity within and among species, ecosystem intricacy and variable means of exploitation make it hard to predict sustainable modes and levels of fishing.

Book Description
Excerpt from Reef Fishing in the Philippines A fourth type of coral reef known as a shoal reef is also common in the Islands. It is characterized by being a patch of reef below sea level at variable distances from the shore and surrounded by water 20 to 40 fathoms in depth. This type is. In effect. A fringing reef of broad development on a shelf or submerged bank. Shelves such as the Polillo Shelf on the east side of Luzon.

Book Description
Progressively building knowledge, skills, and abilities through hands-on experience under varying conditions is necessary to learn how, when, and where to fish Chesapeake Bay structure through the range of constantly changing conditions and seasonal patterns. Yet one could spend a lifetime fishing the Bay and its tributaries and uncover but a fraction of Neptune's secrets. Finding hotspots to prospect for fish remains challenging even with modern sonar technology, especially for those who don't know where to start looking. The Author uses online armchair scouting resources to jumpstart acquiring local knowledge that would otherwise take years to develop. He presents not only where to find natural and artificial reefs, wrecks, rocks, ruins, and obstructions, but also details and illustrates what is actually there and provides coordinates. In this volume, with a foreword by professional guide Captain "Walleye Pete" Dahlberg, he picks up the storyline from Chesapeake Bay Fishing Reefs (2020) by expanding the presentation of structure that provides marine habitat and recreational fishing hotspots in areas that weren't well covered other than by sounding data. Content is designed for new recreational fishermen looking where to begin their acquisition of local knowledge about where to fish, occasional fishermen seeking to optimize available fishing time, and veteran fishers expanding to other fishing grounds. Coverage starts with the tidal Susquehanna River and Flats, down the Upper Bay and outer Patapsco River to and including the Bay Bridge, then south to Cove Point on the West side and Pocomoke Sound on the east side, and around Cape Charles covering the north side of the Chesapeake Bay Entrance. Updated illustrated reef layouts are included for Plum Point, Dominion Reef at the Gooses, Mobjack Bay, Poquoson, York Spit, Bluefish Rock, The Cell, and Cabbage Patch Reefs. Also included are new data for Stone Rock, dozens of lighthouse ruins and icebreaker rocks Bay-wide and in the Potomac and Rappahannock Rivers, and yet another undocumented artificial reef in the Lower Bay. Boating and fishing safety practices are also featured. Whether new to fishing or a veteran, fishers will find clusters of hotspots to plan fishing trips around.
