Booktopia Comments: This book is jam packed with facts, tips and techniques for every child, or even adult, to learn the key skills of fishing. The text is really easy to comprehend and there are lots of photos and diagrams to make it easy to understand what to do. There are a few pages with quite specific detailed information around weights and ratios between hook, line and sinker but that is all part of mastering the art of the catch. The pages on how to tie the knots and set the sinkers to catch certain fish are brilliant and will give anyone the right way to set up and increase the chance of catching fish which of course is the most important thing. There are also important chapters on protecting the environment and personal safety and there is a strong overtone of protecting species and doing the right thing for the environment. PLUS it comes with a DVD that should reinforce all the lessons from the book. The perfect gift for the young angler.

Let's Start Fishing is the ideal fishing guide for anyone taking up fishing, whatever their age.

This book has been compiled by the Australian Fishing Network and contains everything that the beginner angler needs.

It covers: The basics of tackle-what is available and how it works; What are the basic knots and rigs that all anglers need; How to cast; How to find and use baits; Where to fish; The most commonly sought fish; Fighting and landing fish, cleaning fish; Which fish are dangerous and how to handle them; The effect of the weather; The ethics of angling and the environment.

This book is laid out in colour in an easy to understand format with plenty of pictures and diagrams. Hints and fishy facts along the way.

And on the cover is a bonus Kids Fishing DVD so that the readers can see the techniques and tackle in action.
