Fish in Your Pocket: A Guide to Fish of the Upper Midwest (Folded) (ISBN-13: 9781609384630)

Whether sitting in a boat with a rod and reel trying to outwit a largemouth bass or watching bluntnose minnows dart among the rocks of a sparkling stream, many people are attracted to fish. Hundreds of species can be found in the ponds, lakes, rivers, and streams of the Upper Midwest, from the beautifully colored orangethroat darter to the prehistoric-looking shovelnose sturgeon. This much-needed addition to Iowa's popular series of laminated guides--the twenty-eighth in the series--describes twenty-nine fish species, including some of the most sought after game fish like bluegill and largemouth bass, as well as less common species like logperch and the snakelike American eel.

Terry VanDeWalle includes a thorough description of each species, and covers the Upper Midwest states of Kansas, Illinois, South Dakota, North Dakota, Iowa, Missouri, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, Nebraska, and Wisconsin.

The careful descriptions and habitat and diet information in Fish inYour Pocket--enhanced with superb photographs by underwater photographer Garold Sneegas--make it extremely useful for anglers and naturalists alike.
