Scott and Wendy Bannerot are two of the most well respected personalities in the world of Cruiser fishing and this book was certainly well received and a needed resource for those looking to get into cruiser fishing. It really is a whole other world and you'll need to go in with enough knowledge to make sure that your next cruiser fishing trip is a success. After reading this book, you shouldn't have any problems doing just that.

This is really a complete resource when it comes to learning how to fish from a cruiser. Everything you could ever need to know is covered in great detail and you'll get some hints that really only the pro's know and normally don't share. The first section goes into how to tie specific knots that will keep your bait on the hook even in the worst conditions. Right off the bat, they get to information you can really use and address one of the most common problems that face cruising fishers. This is a great way to start off the book and thankfully, it just keeps getting better.

Next up, you'll learn how to pick the right kind of tackle for your cruise as well as some great tips on maintenance and keeping everything organized. For those who are trying to pack before their next cruise, this serves as a great little laundry list to make sure that you have everything you'll need before you step on board. Since a lot of tackle isn't going to be available on board or at a destination, this is essential. We recommend going over this section a few times and making some notes so that you don't forget anything.

After this, the book goes into picking the right gear for your trip and how to stay on a budget. This was probably the best section, next to the one that helps you identify the thousands of species that you're going to come into contact with. Not everyone can afford the latest gear and this book shows you how to get professional results with budget equipment. Since you're already paying an arm and a leg for a cruise, it's great to be able to find ways to cut corners without cutting results.

The book also contains a vital section on first aid and how to deal with any injuries that can occur while cruise fishing. It's a sad fact, but you are at risk when you're engaging in this type of fishing. This book covers everything you'll need to know and what you'll need to bring with you. We really recommend keeping a copy with you during your trip for this section alone. They cover dealing with stings, cuts and worse injuries to help minimize the risks of infection and other diseases.

Overall, if you're into cruise fishing, this is an absolute must read. Even if you're not, you may decide to give it a try during your next vacation.
