Here is a practical guide to the best boats for all kinds of fishing—and how to make them better.
Fishing and great boats are inseparable. Prams, drift boats, canoes, kayaks, johnboats, big-water V-hulls, sea cats, flats boats, and many others—which are best for a specific angler’s needs, and how can he improve them to fit the fishing he does? Tom Earnhardt has forty years of light-tackle experience on boats of every kind and description, and he offers sound advice on everything from hull design to interior layout to power options. In addition, he also offers great trailring, safety, and etiquette.

Whether you fish a rowboat on a farm pond or a center console in the ocean, BOATS FOR FISHERMEN will become your most valued reference.
