But the region's inland waters boast a much broader array of fish than first meets the eye (or hook). The father-and-son team of David and Matt Patterson have pursued both game fish and bait fish in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and New York. In \u003cem\u003eFreshwater Fish of the Northeast\u003c\/em\u003e, they describe more than sixty different species, from the well-known to the obscure, including the redfin pickerel, the blueback trout, and the slimy sculpin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis colourful and helpful guide includes detailed information on habits, habitats, history, and more. To best capture the look and appeal of these fish in their native waters, most of the images are based on the authors' own live catches. The pencil-and-acrylic illustrations render each species in lifelike detail, with close attention given to unique physical characteristics. Both art book and guidebook, this volume will stir some fond memories of fish caught—and a few of those that got away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis new edition features an introduction by Matt Patterson, whose career as a wildlife illustrator has flourished since the book was first published in 2010. Other updates include a practical flexicover, French flaps, and a foreword by naturalist and writer Sy Montgomery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47455567053036,"sku":"9781684582167","price":56.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/61N4LGmVXPL.jpg?v=1774783696","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/freshwater-fish-of-the-northeast-by-david-a-patterson-9781684582167","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
