  • Great Reference Book
Format: Paperback
This book is very easy to read and comprehensive. The illustrations are simple to follow. I especially like all the "Tips" throughout the book. I find myself frequently picking up the book again after reading it cover to cover, to refamiliarize myself with a particular section or area of personal interest. I now use the book as a reference for answering many fishing related questions I have, and it has helped me greatly in choosing tackle, and making other fishing related decisions. Great book for Beginners as well as seasoned Fishermen! I highly recommend it! ... show more
