Inhaltsangabe:
When Bob "Bubba" Rich decided to embark upon his own quest--to qualify for the Metropolitan South Florida Fishing Tournament Hall of Fame--it''s possible he didn''t realize the amount of strength and valor he would need to accomplish his goals. By the time it all was over, he had indeed exhibited as much strength, valor, patience, and fortitude as any angler could muster. The task at hand proved to be that difficult.
Consider his goals--to take ten species of gamefish, on specific types of tackle, with difficult-to-achieve minimum weight requirements: a twenty-five-pound barracuda, a twenty-pound permit, a twenty-five-pound dorado, a blue or white marlin (any size, but on light line), a twenty-five-pound wahoo, a nine-pound bonefish, a sailfish of any weight (again, on light line), a six-pound largemouth bass, a one-hundred-pound tarpon (on a fly, of course), and, finally, an eighteen-pound snook.
Fish with Rich as he probes the waters of south Florida and the Bahamas, searching for the ten species that will gain him entrance to the Hall of Fame. Enjoy the incredible highs he feels when finally catching a fish that qualifies; share with him the unfathomable lows when things go wrong, and he just can''t catch a break on some of the gamefish.
Through it all, you''ll get to know Bubba, his family, his friends, and the many anglers and guides he meets along the way. In the end, you''ll have joined his fishing fraternity, and will be hoping that he''ll soon head off on another quest--taking you along.
