Tim Coleman spent two years researching and navigating the sea to find fishable wrecks and rock piles. He used the most advanced tracking technology he had at the time: Loran sat-c. He published “Fishable Wrecks and Rock Piles” with Charley Soares in 1989.
Tim Coleman and Charley Soares identified 75 wrecks and rock piles worthy of an angler’s attention. For example:
- Addie Anderson
- Angela

“Fishable Wrecks and Rock Piles” is out of print. You can buy a used copy online or at used book shops. The descriptions and the nautical maps are of great value. I recommend getting a copy and doing some research on these wrecks.
