but John Wilson is a bit annoying - By: A. P. Raynham, 24 Apr 2008 
Get past Wilson's gurning, mugging puss & you have an excellent reference book. This book will teach you everything you need to know about rigs, hooks & knots. It is clearly set out with good clear photographs & instructions so it is useful for beginners & intermediates alike.
Read this book on the train & practice at home during February & March when the shore fishing in this country is shocking. Just knowing two or three of the knots & rigs in this book will improve your fishing no end. Good knots do not break. You'll keep more fish & have more confidence in your casting.
The second section of the book concerns bait. What to look for & how to hook & present it. Again a couple of tips learned & practiced will enhance your fishing no end. You will learn what to look for in the tackle shop (and on the beach) so you won't look like a novice when you open up your worms in the tackle shop & say "that's great" as the tackle dealer hands you four day old lug that are about to blow.
A quality book from a quality publication house. Look out for more Anger's Mail titles. Please note that I have found some of the fish specific titles a bit dated but there are, none the less, full of great advise.
The Sea Angler's Step by Step Guid to Bait and Rigs - By: Andy, 07 Jan 2008 
Iv only been into sea fishing for about 6 months. Almost everything suggested in this book has been printed in monthly sea fishing magazines.
This is a useful book to keep & will tell you how to make rigs & present bait.
eliminate the confusion! - By: , 23 Mar 2004 If you are new to sea fishing then this book will help you through the minefield of technical names & jargon. It will show you how to make simple & effective rigs which do catch fish, believe me i am a serious match fisherman! it then explains the various types of sea baits & their usages how to hook worms etc.....bait presentation is just as important as the rig you are using. This book certainly helped me no end when i started back beach fishing 4 years ago, it will give you the confidence to go into your tackle shop & not look like a complete novice, & also save you money in the long run.
The Sea Angler's Step-by-step Guide to Bait and Rigs - By: , 16 Mar 2004 I have only had this book for a few days & only being a beginner to the world of Sea Angling i have found it very useful. It has show me things that you would never know unless you belong to a club, instead of bying rigs it shows you how to build your own therefore saving money. it also shows how to keep your bait fresh & re-usable for your next fishing trip, that also saves money. All in alll a very cheap but valuble book for the beginner to Sea Angling.
Essential purchase - By: D. Carr, 07 Dec 2003 Have you bought loads of sea angling books in the hope that at least one will contain some simple pictures & explanations of bait preparation & presentation rather than just showing you a picture of a ready baited rig? Not found one yet? Then this book is for you. Excellent purchase.
