This review is from: Texas Reds (Saltwater Strategies) (Paperback)

This book is great. This book is a must have for both the beginner and the expert redfish angler. It includes all of the basics for someone just starting out, as well as some good tips and secrets for folks that grew up fishing for reds on the Texas coast. Not only is it full of excellent facts, it's Mr. Moore's writing style is very entertaining, making it a book that I had trouble putting down. Also, unlike other books on the subject, the pictures and maps make you want to take the week off and head to the coast.

1.0 out of 5 stars Major Disappointment, October 12, 2005

By 

Light Tack "Steve" (Austin) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Texas Reds (Saltwater Strategies) (Paperback)

I found this book superficial, not very well written, and full of useless filler (like poor quality copies of readily available maps with no added information, like target areas). I fish with both lures and bait, but prefer active fishing in the shallow bays, particularly those of the Texas Coastal Bend. I am no pro or tournament fisherman. I did hope to learn some new tricks. The book is a major disappointment in that regard and I do not recommend it to anyone but a novice and perhaps those not yet familiar with the upper Texas coast.
