 Catch fish in the boundary waters September 24, 2007
A Boundary Waters Fishing Guide was the only book I chose to portage in the Boundary Waters of northern Minnesota and it guided me to the best lakes and streams and told me what fish types are best in the locations I was traversing and how to catch them. While I am a fishing novice, this book provides location-specific information even pros will appreciate. Only available used I believe.
BWCA Fishing Guide-M. Furtman a must read for the BWCA fisherman! March 19, 2007
This is an excellent book, with lots of great tips for the novice and perhaps the expert. There are techniques that are very specific for the BWCA and the species of fish, time of year, etc. Michael Furtman goes into good detail of all fish found in the boundary water. He also discusses how and when to catch them.
If you love fishing and are heading to the BWCA, I would recommend bring this book with you!

A bit advanced for a newbie, but very useful April 18, 2006

Let me first say that this is one fantastic reference book. It's almost worth the purchase price just for the lake data at the back, which includes among other things the species that inhabit almost every fishable lake in the BWCA and Quetico. The book has some occasionally confusing illustrations of underwater land formations, as well as diagrams of how to fillet the fish you catch. Furtman clearly knows his stuff.
I read through the whole text as a canoe guide who didn't know much about fishing and who had never even cleaned a fish. I still haven't filleted my own catch, but I feel confident I could do it if the situation called for it. As a tenderfoot fisherman, I had to read and re-read the book to absorb all of the valuable details, and I am going to purchase my own copy to bring on trail as a reference this summer. Like I said, the lake data, combined with the best lure types for each species, is worth the purchase price and will improve your results 100%.
Classic and essential... February 12, 2006

Michael Furtman nails it on the head for the anglers new to Northwoods fishing. This is a must have book as it will provide you with the essentials for tackling the majority of fish you will find in the Boundary Waters. It's even small enough to take with you and read on the spot. Easy to read and understand along with many diagrams for further explanation.
 Good resource, very comprehensive August 15, 2002

This book was perfect and covered information on all major fish species and every lake in the Boundary Waters. It was a little confusing in some parts (ie some of the lure and fishing technique terminology was beyond me - a beginner), but it was a very useful resource.
