There really isn't much in this book that your grandpa didn't
already teach you.
Would I recommend this book to a friend? No. If you know absolutely
NOTHING about fishing, then buy this book. But if you know the
basics already, skip it.
entertaining and informative!Reviewed by Sebastian Schultheiss, 2009-11-18
Good book full of good information for me as a relative beginner. I
love the humorous way the author writes and love his stories.
This is the most reader friendly fishing book I have seen so far.
Entertaining, educational and will keep you smiling while you

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

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!

Buy it!Reviewed by Mark Snyder, 2009-07-28
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.

I odered this book as a Christmas Gift for my husband. Never heard of it, but bought it based on the reviews already written. My husband told me it's a great book, very infomative yet humorus. He told me I made a great choice.
