From farm ponds to coastal waters

Tom J. Sully’s book ranges across North American freshwater and coastal habitats, introducing fish and other aquatic creatures alongside accounts of fishing. Its settings span Texas ponds and creeks, Rocky Mountain trout streams, coastal grass flats, and muddy rivers. Practical material on where fish live and how they behave gives the outdoor journey a field-guide dimension, while the range of species—from bluegill and crappie to gar, sturgeon, catfish, and sharks—connects everyday fishing waters with more unusual encounters.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults curious about North American fish and aquatic wildlife.
  • Beginning anglers interested in fish habitats, behavior, and practical fishing knowledge.
  • Outdoor readers who enjoy fishing stories and exploration of ponds, rivers, streams, and coastal waters.

Book overview

Ever look at a river or lake and wonder what lives there? Let's find out.

In this book you will encounter gar, paddlefish, massive sturgeon from the age of dinosaurs, really big catfish, giant sharks, snapping turtles, crawdads, redfish, crappie, bass, and many more fish waiting to be discovered.

From little farm ponds full of bluegill to giant sharks crashing bait in the surf, Discovering Fish and Fishing is a journey through the waters of North America and the strange creatures living beneath the surface.

Travel from Texas stock ponds and hidden creeks to trout streams in the Rocky Mountains, shallow coastal grass flats, muddy rivers holding ancient alligator gar, and giant blue catfish feeding in water barely deep enough to cover their backs.

Part adventure, part fishing guide, and part outdoor journey, this book mixes real fishing stories with practical knowledge about where fish live, how they behave, and why people have always been drawn to the water.

Fish you might fish for later and fish you can go catch today.
