Customer Reviews

Informative and practical
I've recently taken up saltwater fishing and have purchased a few "how to" books. This is the best by far. I found the narrative and photographs to be quite informative and easy to understand. Loads of practical information. Great rigging pictures and explanations how to use. Authour gives "fishing tips" by the fish which are very insightful & helpful. Apply some of the tips already and have a few halibut and yellow tail to prove it.

Very well presenetd and written.

Good Review
The book is abit basic but provides a good review for the experienced fisherman and an good source for forgotten knots and techniques. For the beginning fisherman the book is excellent. I hadn't fished for over 20 years and I found the book to be a good refresher for me and recommend it for all but the experienced fisherman.

Saltwater Fishing Dream Book
This book includes everything a person needs to know about fishing in saltwater, also a complete guide on every type of fish. I highly recommend it.
