Entertaining, educational and will keep you smiling while you learn. by R. F. Rynkowski (Albuquerque, NM USA) 5 Stars
November 12, 2009
Frank Baron with common sense fishing knowledge, gathered over a lot of years, has a regular guy sense of humor. Raised in a fishing family and was fishing before he could hold a cane pole, he gives you the straight inside talk about fish and fishing.
Thoughout his many years of fishing he has learned to think like a fish, and with this knowledge you will learn through his unique sense of humor, and from a fish's point of view, that all fish have just a few things in common; where to live, what to eat, and what's a comfortable watery enviornment.
Along with a chuckle nearly every page, Frank will give you the fishing facts that if you follow, you'll catch lots of fish.
There is only one thing; don't tell the fish you know!
I highly recommend this book -- [...]

Buy it! by Mark Snyder 5 Stars
July 28, 2009
There is no one "perfect" fishing book. It will take at upwards of a dozen books to start a basic fishing library. If you have to chose a single book to start your personal fishing library, this should be the one.
I was at first at bit dismayed that the book was not two inches thick. Then I noticed how slowly I was reading it. It dawned on me that my slow reading pace was due to the content being so engaging and relevant. Even with all my years of fishing experience, I wanted to make sure I did not miss a thing. I went back to read it a second time and used a yellow highlighter to mark passages I wanted to refer back to. I was amazed at how much I highlighted.

Sweet, funny, informative by J. L. Lenhart (Vermont, USA) 5 Stars
September 19, 2008
The author *loves* fishing. The book is as much a love song as a textbook, and I enjoyed it all the more for that. Great insights, side-splitting passages (like the description of the avid angler's "Heightened Awareness" at the tackle shop), and solid information. I haven't had this much fun reading *anything* in quite a while.

| Fishing for Dummies
by Peter Kaminsky (Author)
No one can promise that you will catch fish all the time. Fish, after all, would just as soon never taste a hook or feel the sizzle of a frying pan.

This book will help you fish, and it will help you catch, too. No matter how much you know, there are still a couple of tricks that even the oldest angler can pick up. For those of you who...
