Clear, concise, and informative
In the spirit of full disclosure I must state that I have been a client of Kevin Feenstra for several guided trips and consider him the best fishing guide since the passing of Fred Lee.. Kevin has many years of fishing and guiding the Muskegon River in Michigan and he imparts his abundance of experience and knowledge in his recent book- Matching Baitfish. The information in this book is thorough and the writing is clear and concise. It covers migratory (primarily steelhead) fish location, river structure, and fishing methods. He describes the likely bait fish found in the river and their importance to the fishery. The underwater photographs of these bait fish is astounding . ( if one is interested in photos of wildlife in and around the Muskegon River, check out his Instagram page). And, of course, he provides details of the “flies” he ties to match these important river food sources. I highly recommend this fabulous book and encourage him to write a similar book about fishing for smallmouth
