South Florida’s Fishing Paradise – Lynn Berard

This is an interesting book – especially having “discovered Florida beaches” in the very early 70’s as a college bound teenager from Michigan looking for a good time and a great tan.

What could an engineering and science librarian (me) have to say about a book on fishing you might ask? To that I can say that I have caught Yellowtail in Florida, Chinook Salmon in the Pacific Ocean off Nootka Sound and Walleye and Pike in the French River in Northern Ontario. And this is an interesting book.
