Customer Reviews

Funny fishing book!

"This book is hilarious! I was flipping through it and had a few good laughs out loud while reading some of the "definitions". The one on the front is indicative of some of the better ones. A short one: "zzzzzzz" is: (1) Sound made by a patient angler waiting for a bite; (2) Sound made by an insect about to deliver one." The book itself is about 4" x 4" and about an inch thick, about 280 pages, and scattered with great little drawings here and there. I'm not a fisherman, but my father and both my brothers are, so I can relate. I bought this for one of my brothers, and recommend it for any fisherman you're fond of.
