By Paul LebowitzPromar staffer Jim Salazar must be Public Enemy No 1 of Crustacean Nation. This guy, already well known as Southern California’s recreational lobster guru, has outdone himself. After years of putting on fun and informative seminars and guiding hordes of novices to their first self-caught lobsters feasts, he’s published all of his hard-won know-how in the slim, easy to read book Hoopin’ It Up. The info here goes down as sweetly as a buttery chunk of barbecued lobster. That recipe, as well as just about anything else needed to crank up and enjoy a buggy bounty, is mighty tasty. Salazar’s insights on equipment and hunting strategy are particularly helpful. Life on the breakwalls would be much better if everyone read the short section on etiquette and safety. Rich in illustrations and photos of happy hoopers hoisting jumbo-sized lobsters, anyone with an appetite for bugs can’t go wrong with this comprehensive little tome. www.SabaSlayer.com |
