Fly Fishiing for Dummies
I am just getting into the fly fishing fever and had lots of questions that I was unsure about as every one has their version of the best way to get started. This book was a god send as it not only got me off on the right direction but explained the how to and the way not to's. It helped me understand the why not's and the why to's and how to's. I am still learning the basics found in this book every time I reread it. It may not be the best deal on the market but I don't know of any better. I have gained so much from it that it I believe it to be a must read for any beginner learning to fly fish! For me it was simple plain language easy to understand and implement.I am just getting into the fly fishing fever and had lots of questions that I was unsure about as every one has their version of the best way to get started.

This is an excellent book! I'm new to fly fishing and wanted to learn a little bit before I started flailing away with my rod at the pond. You'll learn about the gear, the fish, and the technique with this book. It's also full of humor making it a good read as well as informative. It's easy to read and full of illustrations for casting, tying knots, etc. I learned everything I was hoping to and much more. If you're new to fly fishing like me, this is the book you need to get going!This is an excellent book!

Fly fishing for dummies
I bougt the book because I am still fairly new to the whole fly fishing scene. I thought it would be a good buy for some tips and tricks and things to keep in mind while I try fly fishing. Its been really helpful with little pointers about this or that. Its helped my casting a little and when people talk about fishing I know some of the termonology that they are refering to. Its a good book to buy if you are new to fly fishing, the pictures are great help too!!! Good luck and happy fishing!!!!I bougt the book because I am still fairly new to the whole fly fishing scene.
