Treasure trove on Information!
This is one of the most comprehensive guides I have ever seen! Having fished Wisconsin waters my entire life, this book takes so much of the guess work out if it. From seldom used access points to the better places to grab a bite and rack cheap for the night... I know it will prove itself invaluable in seasons to come!!!
