Editorial Review:

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The most useful guide to fishes of the Atlantic Coast and Gulf of Mexico
This is the single most useful guide to fishes of the Atlantic Coast because it is reasonably comprehensive, portable, accurate, authoritative, and well-illustrated. Other reviews note the lack of color plates in comparison to Peterson guides for birds, for example, but what matters from the standpoint of identification of marine fishes are field marks, which are very well presented in the illustrations in this guide. There are more than 30,000 living species of fishes, about three times the living ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great guide...not so durable binding.
This is a great field guide. Though some would like full color illustrations, variablility in coloration occurs quite often in fish depending on habitat and other factors. The text descriptions are quite clear. The only complaint I have, is the binding isn't very sturdy. I'm on my 4th copy! My field guides go into the field (or in this case on the boat)where the elements will take their toll very quickly on poorly constructed material.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A Field guide for large fish only
This is a field Identification book, If you really want to know what you caught, you need better literature. When you catch smaller fish species, many of the key features listed for them do not pertain to your catch. That, and the book is built to fall apart, with the plates in the center of the book struggling to freedom within a year.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not your typical Peterson Guide
I have a few Peterson Guides (such as one for birds, and one for reptiles and amphibians) and I swear by them. I have always been able to count on Peterson Guides to provide detailed color illustrations with clearly defined identifying marks. This guide was a huge disappointment. The majority of the illustration plates are in black and white! I have no idea what possessed the editors to settle for a grayscale version from a guide series so well known for its colorful illustrations! (Wish I'd read ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A Field guide to Atlantic Coast Fishes
We were disappointed in this particular guide. We have Peterson bird guides that are great but the fishes guide is mostly black and white images and many varieties of fish had no image at all. Written information was available for all species.
