Additional chapters cover baitfish profiles, fishing strategies and what goes into a surfcaster's decision making process when selecting a lure and presenting it to structure. This book leaves no stone unturned. In more detail then ever before found in one publication, veteran surfcaster Zeno Hromin covers every type of situation surfcasters might find themselves in and presents the best strategies to succeed. In the second half of the book each of today's most popular lures is discussed in detail with tips on colors, sizes, retrieves and on modifications to increase their effectiveness. Toward the end of the book you will find chapters on conservation and fishing with kids, two things the author holds in high regard.

A terrific book.,

This review is from: The Art of Surfcasting with Lures (Paperback)
While I used catch plenty of fluke while drifting Reynolds Channel in a rented skiff with my dad when I was growing up in the 60's, our first attempts at surfcasting were miserable. We gave up trying years ago in favor of our tried and true bait fishing techniques. Now that I've read this book I can see that we didn't do much of anything correctly! I feel confident that "The Art of Surfcasting with Lures" will give me a fighting chance for some productive surfcasting. Armed with new knowledge, I've dusted off my old equipment and picked up a couple of new lures and am ready to get started again.
This is a great book on all counts. As all the other reviews attest, the author provides lots of useful information and insight that is easily transferred to the reader. I also liked the fact that Zeno arms you with enough details of his experience on each topic so that you can think "out of the box" when you need to. I enjoyed reading the book not only for the excellent how-to info but also for its amusing stories. I also appreciated the bits about what to do, and what not to do, in regard to sportsmanship. If you have even the slightest interest in surfcasting with lures I'm confident you'll find this book to be a gem.

A "must read" for ALL serious surfcasters,
By
This review is from: The Art of Surfcasting with Lures (Paperback)
I have been surfcasting for over 30 years and this is the first book I have ever read on the subject that I found almost impossible to put down once I started reading it. The writer, through detailed, no-nonsense descriptions (as well as very amusing and interesting anecdotes of his early days on the beach as well as recent humor-filled experiences) fully explains the reasons why certain lures work better than others in all possible surf casting situations, the best way to retrieve each one in order to maximize its effectiveness, and finally lays out for all surfcasters - new to sport and veteran alike - the most effective and comprehensive treatise on the subject of surf casting with lures ever written.
I found the most helpful information within this gem of a book to be the incredible detail in which the author describes the nuances of working all the popular surf lures properly. We all pretty much know how to cast and retrieve - Zeno takes it miles ahead and explains to the reader exactly WHAT retrieve styles and alterations to same are the most effective for individual surf conditions. Better still, you are not left with the feeling that rote memorization of these details is what is required for success; rather, through the author's insightful descriptions, one actually learns what make a lure "tick" and becomes more and more comfortable with that knowledge with each passing page. I have learned more about lures for the surf after reading this book than I have ever forgotten. So many other documents have been written on the subject of the basics - here, finally, is a read that should be mandatory for all surf casters as it. I will be using it as my primary reference source on the subject for years to come.

Must Read for anyone fishing from shore,
By JD (Boston) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Art of Surfcasting with Lures (Paperback)
I have only been surcasting for about three years, but after reading this book last winter it greatly improved my success rate this season. I was reading anything thing i could find on surfcasting the first few years, and I was trying out everything i could with little success. This book saved me several more years of trial and error! Not to mention tons of cash by showing me the lures/equipment that are truly proven and how to use them. I highly recomend this to anyone that wants to fish from shore. After reading I still refference it all the time.
