Fishing book for kids

The Barefoot Fisherman: a fishing book for kids will take adults back to childhood days of ice cream trucks and lightning bugs. But, sorry friends, pleasant as the trip may be, this book is not for you. Its for your kids.

The book explains the fundamentals of fishing as if the author were your older brother. Amdahl does not preach; he shares. The book reads like a pirates treasure map as each chapter tugs the young reader deeper into the seaside caves of angling.

The Barefoot Fisherman does not discuss entomology, advanced knots, or difficult casting techniques. Instead, it focuses on the aspects of fishing that kids love: raising earthworms, catching crawdads, making doughbait. Try to find a grownup book that considers tomato worms as bait. The authors contagious love of the sport and gentle humor will probably create many new fisherman.

But even adult anglers will pick up some tricks and tips. The ideal plan is to buy this as a Christmas present for some youngster on your list, but give yourself time to read it before you wrap it.
The book is published by Clearwater Publishing, an independent publisher of educational books. Its available at book stores everywhere, as well at Amazon.com and other online sites.
