Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Weiss is an outdoors writer of more than a dozen hunting and fishing books, including last year's counterpart, The Whitetail Deer Hunter's Almanac. Readers who like their prose packaged as numbered paragraphs of thematically organized facts and recommendations will appreciate this quick-read arrangement. There are useful tips and tactics on every page, but many segments were obviously culled from scientific press releases that only a biologist will care about. Since the 18 chapters aren't meant to be read in sequence, the same information often gets repeated two or more times; for example, the first two sections deal with the biology of largemouth and smallmouth bass, respectively, so several points, like how to tell them apart, get rehashed in both places. Other sections range from habitats to spawning behavior to the wide variety of modern tackle. Recommended for public libraries where bass fishing is popular. Will Hepfer, SUNY at Buffalo Libs.

Product Description

Here is an indispensable reference guide that all bass anglers will consult often.

The rapid rate at which our knowledge of bass behavior has increased in recent years makes compiling a comprehensive book on bass fishing a formidable challenge. Nonetheless, John Weiss has met this challenge admirably with The Bass Angler's Almanac. In it, he has assembled bass-fishing information from diverse sources in a single book that is up to date and highly useful. Find hundreds of quick-read, factual tips and insights gleaned from the most proficient guides, tournament pros, tackle manufacturers, and fishing scientists.

With a straightforward approach, the almanac provides:

* Insights about bass biology
* Tips for reading maps and using sonar
* Facts about bass spawning behavior
* Insights into bass habits
* Ways that water and weather influence bass behavior
* Tips for selecting tackle
* How to effectively fish live bait
* Tips for fishing with various lures-from plastic worms to crankbaits

So next time you run headlong into a problem during a frustratingly long day on the water, don't feel defeated. Take a few minutes to thumb through The Bass Angler's Almanac and learn what will work for you next time.

5.0 out of 5 stars An informative easy read!, January 23, 2005
In my opinion, this is a very under-rated book. Weiss does a nice job of integrating biology, tactics, weather and technology in a concise informative format that is easy to read and digest. The three main black bass species are covered; Largemouth, Smallmouth and Spotted.

4.0 out of 5 stars Okay - nothing new, January 11, 2007
This is okay for a fisherman wanting to learn more about bass fishing specifically. Great for a walleye guy wanting to learn about bass.
