Summary: A must have
Review: I have an entire shelf of fish books, and this one has been there the longest. It's great for quick references and is full of drawings of 100s of species of fish. A must have

Summary: Simply on of the best
Review: Simply one of the two best books for identifying books in this region (southeastern United States and Caribbean) -- that's from personal knowledge/experience. Literally, every fish we've ever caught has been in this soft-cover 130+ page gem. Rube Allen, a former Sports/Fishing writer from a St. Petersburg FL newspaper, is experienced (first hand) and shares a wealth of informtion. Not only do you see what the fish looks like, you'll know where it haunts, what it feeds on, if it's edible, (food-value) and lots of other intersting information in a concise format (basically, a paragraph or two/three per fish)..... Anyway, though I'm only experienced with the fish in this region, the information contained is accurate and useful. I believe from that, you may safely assume that the fishes found elsewhere would have accurate information as well. Continuing, aboard our boat we had numerous books. This (and one other -- Florida Fishing by Gordon Lewis) were the two most frequently referenced fish books we owned. My own copy is ragged, taped together and full of notes. Any copy would be a valuable addition to your collection. Buy it!
