The seventh-graders at Bordentown Regional Middle School in New Jersey are turning out some serious striper plugs in shop class. It's a project dreamt up by New Jersey teacher and angler Greg Poole, and with a little help from a master plug-maker and a group of kids genuinely interested in learning the craft, the result is some impressive poppers and Danny swimmers that any surfcaster worth his salt would agree will catch. This is their story.

Ask fishing guides to name their favorite lures and most sigh, then grumble, then inevitably utter some variation on the words, “That’s tough, because it all depends on the conditions.” But deep down, all guides—regardless of sponsorships, endorsements, or free lures showered on them by manufacturers—know the patterns that will get them hooked up on their home waters anytime.

Fish have some magic essence that resonates deeply in the hearts of fishermen. No one has captured that essence better than John Cole in his extraordinary book, Striper (269 pp.; 1978. Illustrated. Published by The Lyons Press. Softcover, $18.95). This is not a how-to-fish book; it's a why-to-fish book. Simple, powerful, and one of the best angling books ever written-even if you never lay eyes on a striped bass.
