Review: Excellent Book to Identify Fish in Florida Waters - The Freshwater Fish of Florida Field Guide provides an easy format to find and identify fish in a waterproof format. It also contains a fine listing of invasive exotic fish species found in Florida waters. Knowing these invasive species is valuble due to the fact that they are sometimes the only fish you see in the Florida's fresh water streams, lakes, rivers, ponds and in the waters of the Everglades. Easier to use than Peterson's Guide for Florida, it has excellent drawings of the various fish species. Very good beginners book which grows with you as you learn more about the topic as you use it to identify the many fish you see in Florida. Easy to use in the field. Review: Hubby loves it! - Bought this as a gift for my husband. We are relatively new to Florida and aren't familiar with most of the species of fish here. This has helped him identify a lot of the things he catches off our dock and the illustrations and "similar to" references also help out quite a bit. This was a great find!
