Beyond the Reefs by William Travis

Nothing but a fisherman's diary. The first part was all about chasing the Green Snail, while in the second the author was talking about fishing sharks around the Seychelles. The reading experience was equal to the excitement that fishing brings me - not fun at all. If you love fishing and stories about it, I guess you'd like the book better than I did.
