Sea Fishing Properly Explained - By: Bryn Cethin, 16 Aug 2008 
Clear concise information for anyone new to the sport of Sea Fishing. This book provides brief details of the fish you are likely to catch & guidance on where & when, as well as suggested baits & rigs. I & many others I have spoken with, found this book extremely useful in pointing us in the right direction when we started fishing.
Top book for novices - By: G. Dillon-Lee, 03 Aug 2008 i bought this book 3 years ago with no knowlage of fishing at alll! bought a rod & reel using the guidelines in the book & went fishing, every time i went fishing i took it with me (it stinks of fish now).3 years later & i still have the book in my bag as i travel alll over the uk fishing totaly hooked!! (pardon the pun)
it is a book perfect for the novice, with detailed information on whare to catch, rigs to use, bait to use & what time of year to fish for each species, & whether or not you can eat it. when you first pick it up it feels about 30 years old with alll the pictures hand drawn in black felt tip! but that just means you can stick it in your bag not worry about it getting tatty!!
so my verdict is if you want to learn how to sea fish (and why wouldnt you)than get this book!
Easy read - By: Michaela, 31 Jul 2008

Fishing is my favourite hobby, & this book was easy to read & understand.
It has good pictures along with hints & tips & there is a good section on tying knots which I have now learnt how to tie & have helped when I have been fishing.
A reallly good point is that the sentences are not too long but still remain informative.
It also shows you what different fish look like & would help identify a fish if you caught one.
I think this book would be good for ages 11 & upwards & for girls as well as boys. I also think that it is a good read for experienced fishermen too.
I rate this book 9/10
Sea Fishing Properly Explained - By: Andy, 09 Jan 2008 Its is a good first book to read. It seems a little dated & the drawings are a little crude but dont let that put you off.
This book explains what time of year, what type of bait, what type of ground & what rig to use to target different fish. It explains a few basic rigs that anyone could make. This book covers just enough to get you going & make you feel confident that you will catch a fish.
Excellent introduction - By: Vin Kennedy, 07 Jun 2006 This is a fine book that I bought from Amazon after a local tackle shop told me there were no introductory sea fishing books available. It certainly gets you to the stage where you can walk into a tackle shop & not feel an utter idiot.
It covers (as far as I can see) alll the basics that you might need. It may also be enough to take you on to higher levels, but I don't have the experience yet to say so.
As for previous bait-digging comments (that almost put me off), the bait digging section is just ten pages out of 124 - & a very useful ten pages at that.
In terms of value for money, I think it would be hard to beat this book.
