Information-packed and heavily illustrated, this guide to the world's
best places to fish is carefully curated and evenly split between fresh-
and saltwater fishing. There's something for every type of angler, from
fishing in streams, lakes, and ponds to the seven seas.
Every angler, whatever their preferred form of fishing, has a bucket
list: dream fish to seek out, the ones that got away, the once-glimpsed
fishing nirvanas. With 500 wildly different fishing experiences from
around the globe, this bucket list draws on the wisdom of a host of
angling writers.
Opening with essential advice for travel, permits, and hiring local
help, the book is divided into sections by continent. Each entry is
labeled by location, target fish species, and best time of year to
visit. In each case, there is something special beyond the thrill of the
catch: the natural beauty of the location, its connection to iconic
anglers, or its reputation for excellence as a fishing ground.
This book includes the full spectrum of fishing scenarios: giant fish
and distant locations, tracking down whispered-about shipwrecks, and
returning to favorite childhood fishing holes--it's all here. Suitable
for all levels of ability and packed with atmospheric and inspirational
photographs, this volume is sure to fuel armchair daydreams and travel
plans.
