A fisherman's illustrated reference guide to 207 saltwater species.

This book is a treasure trove of pictures and information for recreational and commercial fishermen, or anyone who loves the outdoors. Since most anglers identify their fish by reviewing illustrations rather than using scientific keys, the authors have made fishing easier by providing superb illustrations and detailed diagnostics for fish identification.

A valuable, one-stop reference tool for everyday anglers, fisheries experts, biologists, and outdoors writers, this guide includes intensively researched information on 207 species of saltwater fish, essential data on each species' habitat, identification, typical size, and food value.
