A great little book for the beginner and useful for the experienced - By: S. Neale, 11 Dec 2008 
I bought this book a while backin a compilation with the course fishing. And thanks to this little gem of a book, I still happily fish today 15yrs on! Yes, the graphics are dated, but its carries good knowledge that I taught me to fish! A shame I spilled my coffee over it some years back on a night beach fishing trip!
A bit old fashioned - By: Mr. R. A. Bates, 10 Dec 2008 
A bit basic & old fashioned by today's standards but then it was written over 40 years ago & a lot has changedin that time. Not very informative about how to find the fish which is the most important bit really. I'm afraid I threw it away after a couple of weeks.
Sea Fishing Properly Explained - By: Bryn Cethin, 16 Aug 2008 
Clear concise information for anyone new to the sport of Sea Fishing. This book provides brief details of the fish you are likely to catch & guidance on where & when, as well as suggested baits & rigs. I & many others I have spoken with, found this book extremely usefulin pointing usin the right direction when we started fishing.
Top book for novices - By: G. Dillon-Lee, 03 Aug 2008 
i bought this book 3 years ago with no knowlage of fishing at all! bought a rod & reel using the guidelinesin the book & went fishing, every time i went fishing i took it with me (it stinks of fish now).3 years later & i still have the bookin my bag as i travel all over the uk fishing totaly hooked!! (pardon the pun)
it is a book perfect for the novice, with detailed information on whare to catch, rigs to use, bait to use & what time of year to fish for each species, & whether or not you can eat it. when you first pick it up it feels about 30 years old with all the pictures hand drawnin black felt tip! but that just means you can stick itin your bag not worry about it getting tatty!!
so my verdict is if you want to learn how to sea fish (and why wouldnt you)than get this book!
Easy read - By: Michaela, 31 Jul 2008

Fishing is my favourite hobby, & this book was easy to read & understand.
It has good pictures along with hints & tips & there is a good section on tying knots which I have now learnt how to tie & have helped when I have been fishing.
A really good point is that the sentences are not too long but still remain informative.
It also shows you what different fish look like & would help identify a fish if you caught one.
I think this book would be good for ages 11 & upwards & for girls as well as boys. I also think that it is a good read for experienced fishermen too.
I rate this book 9/10
