### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book on basic fishing
*by K***R on September 30, 2025*

First book I read about fishing it Covered all the basics about fishing. topics you can go back and review. Easy read it does not get technical or advanced.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ As advertised.
*by C***N on July 7, 2019*

It covers the basics as advertised. Unfortunately the quality of the book itself is very poor. I plan to refer back to it and I doubt it will hold up well. The similar Field and Stream book was beautiful and excellent quality...but not basic and very disorganized. 2 stars. This book was well written and organized but lots of typos and graphics which were incomplete or wrong. I like the pics to match the text. Thanks to the author.
