This review is from: The Field & Stream Tackle Care Handbook (Paperback)

If so, I'm sure you have some rods and tackle in need of repair. We found this book to be a comprehensive guide for the care of all of our fishing equipment: Rods & Reels, Lures and Lines and more. It shows you show to mend a broken rod right while you are fishing; how to check and lubricate your reels; fix irreplaceable lures (that helps the pocketbook); and more. We found it an invaluable guide that pays for itself.
