5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Primer on the Fundamentals of Fishing Lures, August 3, 2002

This review is from: Fishing With Artificial Lures (Hardcover)

I've been a casual fisherman all of my life. However, I've always fished with natural baits and never seriously tried artificial lures. To be honest, I've been bewildered by the hundreds of shapes and colors available at the local Wal-Mart. This book does an excellent job of sorting all of these lures into several catagories. It then goes on to explain the theory behind each catagory of lure and which techniques to use for each of them. While I'm sure there is a lot of good information here for experienced fisherman, this book is especially useful to newcomers who wish to try lures, but who don't know which ones to buy or understand how to use them. Reading this book will save you money, as it will help you select the few lures you really need and teach you how to use them effectively.
