4.0 out of 5 stars Not Just For Texas Anglers, June 3, 2001

By	Clint Hunter (Houston, Texas United States) - See all my reviews

Don't be fooled by the title because this is a fine guide which can be used by fishermen almost anyplace where there is access to saltwater and/or freshwater fishing. Small enough to fit into a tackle box, this book includes color illustrations of 120 freshwater and saltwater fish found in Texas and other parts of the country. With each illustration comes information on spawning habits, habitats, and preferred baits. Also included are handy tips from experienced fishermen, information on equipment, angling basics, when and where to catch fish, and other useful topics. This is not a new book, but one which has passed the test of time. I recommend it as one of the first things you put in your boat or tackle box before you take your next fishing trip.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great fishing book!, April 30, 2007

By	Joseph Johansen "jcjohansen57" (Houston, Texas United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The only drawback about this book is that it is not waterproofed. Otherwise, it is very informative for both fresh water and salt water species. The break down of information for each species, such as habitat, feeding and if the fish is good eating or not, has been very helpful.
