good book by J. Lutsch 4 Stars
November 11, 2009
good book for the person that wants basic information about fishing. I am a shore saltwater/freshwater fisherwoman and really enjoyed the basic knowledge the book has. I would have liked to have scene REAL pictures of the fish though instead of illustrations

decent book by L. Herring (Wiggins, MS USA) 3 Stars

Didn't have some of the fish we'd been catching here off the coast, but helpful just the same as we are newbies at saltwater fishing!

Perfect book by A. Mazour (Renton, WA) 5 Stars

This book has great pictures with each fish description, making it easy to determine the fish based on sight. Gives you the perfect amount of basic information about each fish, which is all we really wanted. We love this book and we take it with us when we go fishing in Mexico so we can figure out exactly what we just caught! It's great!
