If you buy just one book on fishing, this expert reference should be it. Comprehensively covering fly, sea, and coarse fishing (both from the shore and by boat), "The Complete Guide to Fishing Skills "explains the tackle, rigs, and baits to use, as well as detailing specific techniques, like ledgering, fly fishing, and trolling. From trout to shark, there's also information on the fish themselves, as well as the best methods to use in pursuit of each species. Tony Whieldon's uniquely clear and detailed drawings are combined with explanatory captions that ensure quick and easy access to a wealth of information, whether read at home or at water's edge.
