Icerookie Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 Just wondering if anyone has an opinion on which books with maps of metro area lakes are the best to buy? Thanks in advance!------------------Hey, you're bobber's down!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Johnson Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 As far as books are concerned, Sportsmans Collection is nice. There are two Metro book, east and west Metro. They have a mojority of the lakes outside of the private and non-accessible lakes. Also have good and recent info on stocking and surveys.Also might want to look into the Lake Master Lake Maps for your computer as well. They are nice to have and there are a lot of features.

Seeker of Clayface Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 I think the Twin Cities Fishing Guide by Sybil Smith has the best information regarding productive locations and tactics for each lake. A lot of good information was gathered from locals, professional anglers, guides, bait shop owners and others. Just check the references listed at the back of the book. However, I also like the East/ West Metro series put out by Sportman's Connections. The DNR survey info is a big plus, more lakes are covered and the maps are bigger (but not very detailed).Both are very handy in my opinion.

mpotter21 Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 Sportmans book is good. DNR HSOforum is just as good and its free! Same maps. Mike-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Johnson Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 I have a Twin Cities Fishing Guide signed by Sybil Smith. My mom's good friend knows Sybil really well and fishes with her a lot. They were in the same fishing club growing up. A very nice lady. Also a good book Good Fishin,Matt Johnson ------------------First Choice Guide Service [email protected]Catch-N Tackle and Bio BaitMarCumStone Legacy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
