Whether you're fly-casting for trout or deep-sea fishing for tuna, this essential source book should be close at hand. With it you can check out the location of major hatches, find out how to balance your fly to your tippet, set reel drag, choose the correct hooks, lines, lures, leaders, and swivels, and avoid poisonous fish for dinner. Also included are a summary of IGFA rules and regulations and world record requirements for freshwater, saltwater, and fly-fishing. Packed with charts and tables, organized for fats and ready reference, Soucie's Field Guide of Fishing Facts is as useful and necessary as a well sharpened hook.

Killroy: I spotted this one in the local library. Though my favorite method of fishing is fly fishing, I do others. This book has tons of valuable data for all types of fishermen. I use some of the charted data here on my site. Well worth a look.
