First of all this is a very nice book physically. I like the binding, the paper texture, and the B&W pictures are good. Also, my copy arrived autographed by the author. Very cool!

This may be the best fishing book I've ever read. Others either A) make fishing seem like rocket science (**cough-cough**In-Fisherman**cough-cough**) or B) are obviously selling something. You'll find none of this in "Catching Bluegill".

"Catching Bluegill" keeps it simple. Down-to-earth, easy-to-follow advice. Exactly what I'm looking for in a fishing book.

The best recommendation I can give the book is that after reading it I was able to go to a new lake, quickly identify prime bluegill country and proceed to catch the biggest gills I've ever caught (and redear too). Thanks Mr Tertuliani!

I know...panfish as gamefish..this guy is nuts. But it's true - I don't fish for panfish just becuase others aren't biting, I really do prefer to catch these tiny fighters. On a 3wt flyrod, on a spincast ultralight with 4lb test...these little fish are a ball!

This book covers all the basics of a species far too many (probably) take for granted. It's a good primer for a lot of different ways to catch blugill...but it's also a nice refresher when you want to experiment a bit.

I think it's added to my enjoyment of fishing, which really is the best thing I say about it.
