Paul Worsteling drops a line into the 'best fish to catch' conversation with his latest book release, 'The Fisherman's Bucket List' - 50 fish to catch before your last cast. This elegantly presented hard cover book profiles 50 top sportfish, each described with a mix of anecdotes, interesting facts, related species information, hot spots, fishing tips, cooking advice and comments of interest that provide you with a taste of an encounter with each fish. Paul Worsteling, best known for his fishing exploits on his television show IFISH, avoids the textbook style so often used in fishing books and instead takes a conversational approach to a topic that is sure to create as many arguments as laughs among fishing mates debating what fish species should make an angler's bucket list. The clean spacious layouts and the beautiful hand-drawn illustrations of each species please the eye. Each fish profile is also accompanied by a couple of field shots to give you a feel for the on-water experience. The geographical range of each fish is represented on a map positioned next to three hot spot suggestions, plus there's a details box for you to fill in as you catch each fish. Worsteling starts with anecdotes of personal encounters for each fish then moves on to describe those facts that best represent the fish and the experience of catching one. Interesting information about closely-related fish species is included, providing subtle fishing clues, and Worsteling also offers one 'Paul's Tip' for each fish, to complement the suggested fishing tactics and cooking advice. This book is a conversation in waiting and as MOTO GP champion Casey Stoner mentions in the book's Forward, 'It will no doubt inspire anglers into action [and] will get you thinking about the fish you most want to catch
