Charlie White has long been famous for his big smile, a host of inventions, and the fish he has landed. During the past 60 years as sport fisherman, author, publisher, entrepreneur, and inventor, Charlie White has sold almost half a million books. He created Victoria's Pacific Undersea Gardens, and his Scotty downrigger revolutionized sport fishing. As a fish-behaviour researcher he has talked fishing to academic, corporate, and tourist-oriented groups across Canada and the U.S. The Charlie White Library should be basic reading for any fisher, crabber, or shellfish lover on the west coast.
