Book Reviews of The Ultimate Guide to Surfcasting
Book Review: Knowledge is the key.
Summary: 5 Stars
I have recently moved fron Texas to the east coast and wanted to take up fishing. I have fished all my life and been an average caster. I soon realized that distance in casting plays a big role. You can have the right lure but if you can't get out to the fish you go home empty handed or watch someone else get the hookups. I then bought Ron Arra and Curt Garfield's book "The Ultimate Guide to Surfcasting" I found it to being very helpful in reaching distances that I wanted to achieve. This book contain key knowledge in my opinion that would help out a begining surfcaster like me or even someone who has been in this sport for awhile. I continued to do A little more research and looked into a Ron Arra "Surf Pro" rod by Lamiglass and found that this rod is the top of the line in surfcasting rods. I purchased one and with the combination of this book and the "Surf Pro" rod I am the one that walks away with the fish. It is trulely unbeliveable how much more distance and knowlege I have attained through this book.
Summary of The Ultimate Guide to Surfcasting
Casting distance is the key to successful surf fishing. In The Ultimate Guide to Surfcasting, Ron Arra - five-time winner of the United States surfcasting championship - reveals the techniques that made him a casting champion, and explains how to apply these skills under genuine fishing conditions on the beach, as well as on the tournament field. Arra fully explains techniques for the off-the-beach cast, the overhead beach cast, the modified pendulum cast, the light-tackle cast, and many more. The helpful recommendations for lure and rig selection, tackle, and tuning reels for maximum distance will help any surf fisherman to cast and fish with authority. With scores of step-by-step photographs of Arra in action, and clear descriptions of all the nuances of distance casting, The Ultimate Guide to Surfcasting will improve the casting and fish-catching potential of novice and veteran surfcasters alike.
