5 out of 5 stars Excellent Reference Guide   July 19, 2000
Byron W. Wallace (Harlingen, TX United States)
23 out of 23 found this review helpful

This book is an excellent reference guide for identifing gulf and bay fishes, and contains very little "how-to" information. Fish are separated into families. Each fish has a detailed color illustration, common name(s), and scientific name, plus a short description of each of the following categories: physical description, range, habitat, typical sizes, food value, game quality, typical tackle and bait, and a very short description of typical fishing methods. 185 fish are pictured in all, including sharks, stingrays, baitfish, and a number of other fish that may be encountered even though they are not normally thought of as sportfish.


5 out of 5 stars Essential for the emerging gulf fisherman   August 2, 2007
David Taylor (Lake Charles, La)
I enjoyed reading each and every species entry. The author is obviously a fish enthusiast when it comes to cuisine due to the fact that 90% of the animals he lists are described at the very least as 'tasty'. The illustrations are exquisite and the descriptions for each fish type are thorough. I would recommend this book for anyone new to fishing the Gulf of Mexico.


5 out of 5 stars Don't get fined???????   September 10, 2007
E. Roebuck (Fowl River AL.)
With so many restrictions and diffrent types of fish in the gulf, the last thing you want is an illegal fish. "Sport Fish of the Gulf" is on my vessel when I fish!


5 out of 5 stars Great for the amateur and pro alike.   June 5, 2008
Ian Salazar (Panama City, Florida United States)
After shopping for a book of this nature, I got tired of the book store prices and was glad when I found it at Amazon.com. Shortly after placing my order, I found it at Wal-Mart for about $7.00 more. Always Low Prices should be Amazon's slogan. Great book to own with great details such as: food quality, how to fish for, avg. size and weight etc.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome Book   November 10, 2009
Stanley A. Bryant Jr. (Naples, FL)
This book does a great job of identifying a wide range of Gulf Coast species. It's a great tool for rookie and veteran anglers alike. I've been fishing for well over 20 years and I learned a lot from reading this book. A couple of the features that I enjoyed particularly are the food value, and angling tip sections.
