re: Looking for some good reference books on hunting and fishing for my 13 yo

For a broad based outdoor education you should get him a subscription to outdoorlife.

Then check out the state parks web site and/or visit them and the have lots of reference material.

Also have him take his hunter and boater safety courses.

As far as getting him out and hunting there are lots of places that are willing to get young guys in the field.


As much as possible you should do these things with him.





If you want a chance to put down a pig or two on a father/son hunt let me know.
