DESCRIPTION:
"Five Stars" according to V. Prusha. gret. North American Freshwater Fishes After a recent dive trip to Florida springs I needed a field guide to help me identify some of the fishes I saw. This book did the job. It appears to be very complete, which is what I needed.. A waste of money Vivaldi Guy This book may be of interest to an icthyolgist, but it's not much use to a fisherman. The color illustrations are very poor. They all have a washed out yellowish tint, and thus the illustrated fish tend to look all alike. The non color illustrations are better, but the book relies mostly on descriptions.
More than 700 illustrations, most in color, show identifying marks. Also includes 377 distribution maps and additional drawings of key details.. The first comprehensive field guide to freshwater fishes - covers all 790 species known in the United States and Canada
