This book was a bit of a disappointment. While there was some good information in it, there was much too much boasting on the part of the author. It almost seems he is trying to sell his ideas and techniques. In addition, it was very poorly written. There is no evidence of any participation of an editor or professional writer. Poor sentence structure, including unfinished sentences abound. I give this three stars because the book provides information that is otherwise uncovered in books and also because there are some good photos.

New to Giant Tuna, I have been searching for books/articles that describe this sport. This is the ONLY book that describes the fishing methods used by top charter boat captains for bluefin tuna fishing. If you are a tuna fisherman, buy this book.

If you are simply looking for an etertaining read, do not buy this book. It is poorly written and you may grow tired of the constant PENN, LEES, and ANDE commercials by the author.

if you want to learn how to catch,grade and sell a giant bluefin tuna this book is for you, capt. greg beacher does'nt hold back anything, he reveals the secrets that the pros use. this book is filled with pictures and illustrations and he passes on his 20 + years of experience. i highly recommend this book.

We've recently purchased a 32' Sport Fisher and are interested in fishing BlueFin, YellowFin, Albacore, Dorado, the sea's best game fish. Just perusing this book, I immediately saw it is full of useful hints, tips and ideas. That alone is worth the hefty price of this book. Speaks a great deal of the 'Giant Bluefin' which is primarily in Atlantic waters. Since we're in San Diego, we fish only along the Pacific Coast but stand-up Yellow fin and Bluefin are not unheard of here either. Worth the bucks!

This is a book written by a Fisherman, just the way it should be.

It is very complete book on Bluefin as far reading goes but a few coloured pictures would make it more desirable. However, let this by no means put you off buying it. If you are interested in catching the bluefin, go for it, you will not regret it,

BEST BOOK I EVER READ ON FISHING FOR THE GIANT BLUEFIN. THE PICTURES AND ILLUSTRATIONS LEAVE NOTHING TO THE IMAGINATION VERY DETAILED . I WAS AMUSED AND ASTONISHED TO LEARN THAT MAPLE SYRUP WAS USED FOR MORE THAN JUST PANCAKES.

AN EXCELLENT BOOK! SHOWS THE SECRETS OF THE TRADE WHICH I HAVE NEVER READ BEFORE IN ANY OTHER BOOK. I FOUND THIS BOOK TO BE VERY INFORMATIVE AND EASY READING , ALONG WITH THE AUTHORS GOOD SENSE OF HUMOR.
