Product Description

From the International Game Fish Association and expert Lindsey Philpott comes a clear visual guide to tying every fishing knot you'll ever need to know. Whether you're fly-fishing, trolling, spinning, or surfcasting, your knots must hold well, be easy to remember, and help the lure to wriggle. The Complete Book of Fishing Knots, Leaders, and Lines teaches anglers the best way to tie reliable, workable knots. Knots you already know and unusual special-purpose knots are depicted in color photographs tied with thick monofilament, so you don't have to guess what each knot is really supposed to look like. There are descriptions of fifty knots, and tips to improve your tackle and simplify life for yourself—because the fish make fishing hard enough! The Complete Book of Fishing Knots, Leaders, and Lines also offers clear instructions for tying winning leaders, tips for selecting lines, and up-to-date information from the field that will bring you the quickest, slickest, and best catch ever. 150 color illustrations

5.0 out of 5 stars Clear descriptions of knots and their uses, March 31, 2009
By G "gee_whiz" (boston, ma United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Complete Book of Fishing Knots, Lines, and Leaders (Paperback)
Although not an expansive collection of every knot in the world, this book contains a library of many useful knots for nearly every fishing application. It's descriptions of the knots are clear and illustrated quite nicely. It certainly contains more knots than I would ever use in my lifetime.

If you're looking for every obscure knot in the universe, look elsewhere. If you want a simple description of knots with clear illustrations, then you've found a winner with this book. It's one that I will refer back to for many years.

This review is from: Complete Book of Fishing Knots, Lines, and Leaders (Paperback)
Nice book. BUT - I don't agree to be "complete" book for knots and information. Nice pictures, but again lack of knot varities or quantities. Some knots are complicated and don't show detail information or enough steps to finish the knot. They are missing some very good and important knots. Again - it's a good "not so comlete" book.
