The BEST book on bass fishing EVER

I got this book for my birthday, and couldnt put it down. This book gives you tips on fishing in almost every situation possible, it gives you tons of information on what lures cathc the most bass, and how to use them, it tells you all these technickes and secrets that you could only know if you had been fishing for many many years. I have looked in my local library for books that come close, but none do. Uncle Homer ties in stories of fishing trips with all this information, and it is surely a good book to get a youngster intrested in bass fishing. Definitly THE book on bass fishing, for ages 8-108.

Bass Wisdom...the name says it all.

Wow, is my one word to describe this remarkable book. Homer Circle with more than 50 years of bass fishing experience, and 30 plus years as an editor with Sports Afield, truly knows every fishing tip, trick and tactic worth mentioning. Bass Wisdom is a very smooth free flowing piece of literature never incomprehensible. Uncle Homer writes a brief introduction, which expresses his early obsession with bass. Once this bit of history is mentioned. The adventurous journey of bass fishing plunges into the world of bass. Uncle Homer states there is six species of bass and four subspecies. However this text focuses on the three more sought after species largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted or Kentucky bass. The book goes on to discuss where monster bass live, seasonal tactics, favorite plastic worms, bass secrets revealed (account of underwater video), what sounds make bass bite, cold weather bass, fly rodding for bass, and numerous other topics. This book should be on every serious bass fisherman bookshelf. I give this book five stars and highly recommend it for anyone, novice or a 20-year veteran. I have been bass fishing "consistently as a hobby" for about ten years. After the first reading of Mr. Circle's book, I realized how much an individual can ascertain while on the water if exploring the appropriate methods

Bass Fisherman - Wise Up and buy this book!

This is THE book on bass fishing. Homer Circle is brilliant and practical. Written for all levels of fisherman, the information and advice is clear, concise and full of common sense. The "hands-on" knowledge he has gained over many years of fishing flows effortlessly as he covers topics such as, bass anatomy & physiology (from a fisherman's perspective), rods & reels , lures & tackle, and a broad range of bass fishing related information. If I were limited to one book only on bass fishing - this would be the one.
