"Long Island's Best Freshwater Fishing by Tom Schlichter is loaded with local information."
- Alex Kenney, The Daily News, December 3, 2004

“A Revelation In L I’s Freshwater Fishing…From lunker-yielding lakes and fast-action hot spots to lures and techniques that work, Schlichter covers the sweet waterfront. To such a mainly saltwater angling community as Long Island, it would be like opening a Pandora’s Box to find that Long Island offers such a diversity of freshwater gamefish from monster largemouth bass, trout, carp and pickerel to yellow perch, walleye, crappie and bronzebacks.”
– Gene Saraphine, Suffolk Life Newspapers, December 15, 2004

"A Great Read!...One of the special qualities Tom's book posesses is the ability to transport
the reader from one fishing spot to the next while creating a comfortable
feeling of truly being familiar with each location...Each and every chapter
includes detailed instructions for fishing each spot in order to ensure the best
success. Very rarely do you come across such specific instructions when reading
a how-to book. Better yet, the author knows the history and geography of our
island and willingly shares it with us. It's a great read!"
- Rich Smidt, Traveler Watchman Newspaper, January 13, 2005

“All in all, this book is a gem and if anyone is serious about learning our prime lakes & streams – this book is a MUST!"
- “Crazy” Alberto Knie, Northeast.com, March 25, 2005

“…The Ultimate Work on Long Island Freshwater Fishing…If you have any interest at all in freshwater fishing, or if you are looking to expand your angling horizons from the salt chuck to lakes and ponds, you cannot afford to be without this all encompassing guide…”
- Fred Golofaro, Publisher, The Fisherman Magazine, March 31, 2005

“…a much needed and good book that covers virtually all of Long Island’s freshwater opportunities…”
- Martin Garrell, The Suffolk Times, April 21, 2005

"Clear and Honest...with four books under his belt and in the prime of life, Schlichter's writing style has developed and matured, but it still reads clear and honest with Long Island's Best Freshwater Fishing!"
- Shoshanna McCollum, Islip Bulletin, August 11, 2005
