Description: ~ You Are Bidding On A Book ~ Title:K.I.S.S. Guide to FishingAuthor:Robert Roth and Scott BowenISBN:0-7894-8421-8Publication Date:2001Binding:SoftcoverPages:320 - Color Pictures & IllustrationsDimensions:7 1/2" x 9 1/4"Condition: Used - Very Good Condition Description:The PURPOSE of the K.I.S.S. Guide to Fishing is to turn the novice angler into a successful fisherman. It attempts to provide all the essential fishing information and instruction that a book can supply while still keeping it simple. Admittedly, some currently available books have already done this job, and done it well. Unfortunately, these very informative, honest efforts look like fishing equipment catalogs and read like fishing encyclopedias. The quality that makes the K.I.S.S. Guide to Fishing unique is that, not only are first things covered first, only the necessary things are covered first. It's not a book that must be read in its entirety before you wet your fishing line. Part One contains everything you need to know about fishing to get started. After reading it, you not only can but should start fishing. The remaining three parts of this book are more conventional. They will deepen and widen the knowledge you gained from Part One, covering all the different methods and tricks without turning novice anglers into catatonic basket cases. This book is no wishy-washy preview of all the fishing possibilities before you. Do you really want to start out by reading a chapter on the history, idiosyncrasies, and proper use of ice-fishing equipment? Do you really think the first fishing reel you should get your hands on is an unlimited-class trolling reel the size and weight of a bowling ball? If so, then what you have in your hands right now is the wrong book. Save yourself some time and money by putting it back on the shelf. The first thing a novice fisherman should learn is how to catch fish. Afterward, he or she can learn the advantages of specialized gear and how to use it. Too many would-be fishermen get this order reversed. They end up walking away from the sport with some barely used fishing equipment and no fish. The one thing I hope you will learn in the end, you can't learn from this book: The people we go with are at least as important as the fish we go after. That's why this book is dedicated to seven real fishermen: Murry and Charlie Davis, Vernon and David Leet, Morris Cappel, Alex Targonshy, and Jerold Roth. CONTENTS: ALL YOU NEED TO START FISHING 1.
