You know the saying: Give a man (or woman) a fish, and you give him dinner; teach a man (or woman) to fish and he'll have dinner for the rest of his life. The always entertaining and instructional "... for Dummies" series reeled in witty outdoors writer Peter Kaminsky to keep the rest of us fed--as in food for the table and food for thought--with this step-by-step guide to pretty much every right and obtuse angle on angling. As with all the books in the series, Fishing is filled with punchy advice, plenty of diagrams, and a series of Top 10 lists that should bag aspiring fishers hook, line, and sinker.

North by Northwestern: A Seafaring Family on Deadly Alaskan Waters [Hardcover]

Price:$17.15
Buy Now

Sig Hansen has been a star of the Discovery Channel’s Deadliest Catch from the pilot to the present. Seen in over 150 countries, the show attracts more than 49 million viewers per season, making it one of the most successful series in the history of cable TV. With its daredevil camera work, unpredictably dangerous weather, and a setting as unforgivable and unforgettable as the frigid Bering Sea, The Deadliest Catch is unlike anything else on television.

But the weatherworn fishermen of the fishing vessel Northwestern have stories that don’t come through on TV. For Sig Hansen and his brothers, commercial fishing is as much a part of their Norwegian heritage as their names. Descendents of the Vikings who roamed and ruled the northern seas for centuries, the Hansens’ connection to the sea stretches from Alaska to Seattle and all the way to Norway. And after twenty years as a skipper on the commercial fishing vessel the Northwestern--which was his father’s before him--Sig has lived to tell the tales.

To be a successful fisherman, you need to be a mechanic, navigator, welder, painter, carpenter, and sometimes, a firefighter. To be a successful fisherman year after year, you need to be a survivor.

This is the story of a family of survivors; part memoir and part adventure tale, North By Northwestern brings readers on deck, into the dockside bars and into the history of a family with a common destiny. Built around a gripping tale of a deadly shipwreck like The Perfect Storm, North By Northwestern is the multi-generational tale of the Hansen family, a clan of tough Norwegian-American fishermen who, through the popularity of The Deadliest Catch, have become modern folk-heroes.

1,000 Freeze Dried SHRIMP AQUA-SCENT Fish Tickle Attractant Pellets + 10 Free Aqua Glow Spinners

Price:$29.99
Buy Now

The Fish Tickle System is unlike every other scent or attractant product on the market. It produces sensational results every time, for every species, and every technique. The reason is simple. Fish Tickle uses the science of scent attraction and dispersement more effectively than anything ever has before. The formulation of the Fish Tickle System begins by freeze-drying real, natural baitfish and other proven bait foods that fish consume in the wild. Freeze-drying preserves the all-important amino acids and fatty acids in the bait extending the useable life exponentially. The freeze-dried bait particles are combined with a calcium carbonate powder, a common substance found as rock in all parts of the world and the main component of seashells. Following a carefully controlled curing process, the mixture is compressed into patented Fish Tickle tablets. The tablets are inserted into the Aqua-spin or Aqua-bug dispenser and fished in conjunction with whatever technique you choose. The pellets will come in a sealed plastic bag with no retail stickers or plastic clamshell (photos show retail stickers and plastic clamshells).
