Description

Identify your catches of saltwater and freshwater sport fish in the Gulf of Mexico and all of Florida with this convenient quick guide.

Whether you're fishing on shore, off a dock, or in a boat, keep this tabbed booklet close at hand. Based on Dave Bosanko's Fish Identification Guides, the booklet features 67 of the most popular freshwater and saltwater sport fish of the Gulf of Mexico--including the states of Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas--plus all of Florida's coastal waters.

The booklet is organized by fishing location, "Inland/Near Shore" or "Deepwater/Offshore," for quick and easy identification. Further narrow your choices by tail shape, and view just a few species at a time--from bass and trout to sharks and stingrays. The pocket-sized format is much easier to use than laminated foldouts, and the tear-resistant pages help to make the book safe to take anywhere you reel 'em in
