The Power of Positive Fishing

A Story of Friendship and the Quest for Happiness

De: Adam Gamble, Michael J. Tougias

Narrado por: Traber Burns, Malcolm Hillgartner

Michael Tougias and Adam Gamble had good lives: married with two children each, nice homes in the suburbs, jobs that paid the bills, and frequent fishing trips out on the ocean. But those comfortable lives had cracks in them and soon they found themselves hit by a rogue wave of divorce, financial hardship, addiction, and career upheaval. What kept them going—and helped them navigate the rough waters of middle age—was fishing and friendship. Alone on the ocean they not only learned some of the successful secrets of striped bass fishing, but they were also brutally honest in their advice for each other. They began to see their time spent on Adam’s boat, the Scout, as a way to explore new ways of thinking and dreaming big. The two not only discovered ways forward but achieved goals far beyond what they thought possible.

An excellent read concerning life and fishing

An interesting combination of personal biography woven through the topic of fishing. A very good read for those who find deep meaning in fishing, especially if familiar with Cape Cod and Massachusetts.
