  • Summary Of Ice To The Eskimos By John Spoelestra

    1139 Words  | 5 Pages

    Jon Spoelestra’s Ice to the Eskimos was very interesting and informative. Throughout the entire book, Spoelestra reflected upon the experiences and knowledge that he gained from working in the sports industry.

This was particularly interesting to me because of my interest in finance. Initially, I thought that if you make an offer too good, that you could potentially be losing out on some profit, however, after reading this book, this principle makes perfect sense.

This method works best when the water is warmer, above 50 degrees Fahrenheit, because a lot of baitfish aren 't active in cooler temperatures.
