I recommend it. Great read, definitely basic, but ties together some loose ends that may have been left out that veterans take for granted when teaching beginners.
I would recommend this book. The book is organized well with all the needed techniques for fresh water fishing. Its a good book for beginners. Simple to read and understand.
this is good for beginners and a refresher for some of us who haven't been fishing for several years
If you are more seasoned, this is probably not a great choice. Some of the pictures and diagrams are not the best, but I felt more confident the next time I went out on the lake with my boys. Plus, we caught more fish, which is always nice.If you are new to fishing, and looking for a quick read to get started, then I recommend this book. I have started fishing more with my sons, so I thought it would be useful to buy a few books to make sure that I know the lingo, and do not make a fool of myself. Good luck, and see you at the lake. In it, he discusses the basic equipment and tackle needed, and various types of fish that are commonly sought. Cliff Hauptman's books is a nice primer with lots of useful information. I found the information quite useful, and well worth the read.
The author's reccomendations of what lures to buy were especially helpful. This book was quite valuable in helping me figure out what equipment I needed and what I didn't. I fished quite a bit growing up, but got away from it while in college. Recently I wanted to get back into it, so I needed some more grown-up gear.
