This comprehensive handbook provides step-by-step instructions for everything a young angler might need to know on their first freshwater fishing trip.

The book is packed with kid-friendly tips and tricks for catch-and-release freshwater fishing and helps readers--whether in the country or the city--to "think like a fish" as they learn the watercraft of reading a river, pond, or canal; how to find the best spots to fish; and how to cast for the catch of their dreams.

This book is the perfect guide to fishing and is sure to instill a love of angling among readers aged seven and up.

  • Step-by-step instructions for the complete beginner on everything from creating your rig to casting out--and caring for your catch!
  • Fully illustrated spreads throughout packed with useful diagrams and stunning scenes.
  • Advice on catching everything from a microfish to a huge pike!
