fish identification book recommendation

Hi all,

Just wondering what would be the most comprehensive compact book (for the tackle box) on the market for the identification of fish specie(s), location(s), edibility and anything else.

Thanks

Quan

I got given one called 'Guide to Sea Fishes of Australia - A comprehensive reference for divers and fishermen'. Its got over 400 pages of fish with photos for each. It has come in handy on more than one occasion.

Mate I think it only cost me about $15
Pretty sure I picked it up from my tackle store but I have seen them at book stores too.
