About this title

Synopsis

An inspirational and informative guide for prospective young fishermen explains how to select and use rods, reels, and other fishing gear, and introduces the fundamental techniques of fishing.

Reviews

Grade 5-8-A beautifully illustrated, informative book. Twenty-three chapters (two to four pages each) cover equipment, how and where to fish, types of fishing, and baits. The colorful pages contain accurate and pertinent information along with clear, full-color photographs, drawings, and charts. Most chapters include helpful "angler's hints." Practical and necessary safety considerations are noted throughout. Illustrations of and information about fresh and salt-water fish appear on the endpapers. Organized efficiently, this book can be used as a whole or to clarify a particular topic or detail.

Gr. 4-6. This large-format volume from the British series Hobby Handbooks explains the sport of fishing and how it differs in still waters, rivers, and ocean surf, and when done from boats. Sharply focused, full-color photographs show the equipment and the process of fishing, while colorful diagrams demonstrate the basics, such as how to bait a hook, cast, attach weights to a line, and unhook a fish. The "angler's hint" sections throughout the book give suggestions that will help young people experienced in fishing as well as beginners. Despite its British origins, this volume will be useful in North American collections. Carolyn Phelan
