watersnake 2 Posted August 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Fishie, I have had four of my own Family try and find the book to buy it , as well as countless friends and fisho's that I have shown the book to have all tryed to buy it . so FISHIE if you know were the the book can bought from Please , Please tell us . Most off them can be found on another web sit . Link to post Share on other sites
Ranger 48 Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 Nearly all tacklestores stock the book! I have a copy myself, most of my friends have a copy, and I still see it on book stands everywhere!There's also another which has 2000 marks Australia wide!When going to a new area I punch all book marks for that area into my GPS, but I make sure when I name them the name ends in a "B" to remind me the mark came from a book!ie: NormaBI use this as a general guide to the area, and once I get out there I sound around to find my own piece of structure.I mark this newly found structure on my GPS, and then delete the corresponding book mark ending in a "B".ie: Mark and insert Norma, delete NormaBThis way, over a period of time working the area I replace all the book marks with marks of my own, as the book marks can be pretty unreliable. They are helpful as a guide to the area though, and they do provide you with all the well known grounds. Link to post Share on other sites

brenton 637 Posted August 2, 2009 Report Share Posted August 2, 2009 This seems like a storm in a teacup .I would reckon that the author would not be able to claim ownership of those gps coords because he would of gotten most of them off the charts/net or someone else. I do own that book though and without really investigating many of the spots the ones i have are duds.Still can be a helpful tool for the newbie,just don't head 20k offshore and expect to find something. cheers brenton Link to post Share on other sites

Fishie 98 Posted August 3, 2009 Report Share Posted August 3, 2009 Brenton, I know a lot of the metro whiting plots are way off the mark but some of those Gulf St Vincent snapper plots are spot on. Some of those plots are old pro spots where there are such things as old shark boats, fishing boats, reefs, carbodies etc that hold some big fish. I think the author was given the plots but didn't know what was really there on the bottom. If you want to catch snapper still use the plots out of the book I had a mate call me up on the phone from way out off Pt Hughes asking me where he should head to and I gave him a spot out of the book in the Channel and he went there and was straight over a lump and they bagged out Link to post Share on other sites
