There are many books on angling in Maine, but A Fisherman’s Guide To Maine is the best one I’ve seen.

A Fisherman’s Guide to Maine, goes well beyond rod and reel to capture the essence of what I love most about our state.  It is fascinating in its rich details of local history and Maine’s natural beauty, and is a book I will come back to over and over.
