Fly fishing books and videos...

Anybody see or read any lately that were good?

Here are two books I have read recently: The Complete Guide to Easten Hatches by Tom Fuller, very good book for trying to match the hatch. Fly-Fishing the 41st by James Prosek, very good read, makes me wish I could travel more.

I recently picked up a copy of Lani Waller's Steelhead Legacy. Cool video and also very informing. I liked the chapters on the great lakes and the fly patterns.

Just looking for some more stuff to add to my collection, thanks!

    I just bought "Fools's Paradise" by  John Gierach.  Just about any of his stuff is fun to read and entertaining.
    I see Greg Hoover has a new book out on eastern caddis, but I want to look it over first.....wondering if it is more about the bugs and less about fishing the flies that imitate the bugs?

    I read "Modern Streamers for Trophy Trout: New Techniques, Tactics, and Patterns" a great book. It talks about eliciting strike out of incoded behavior and not outta hunger. Kinda like muskie fishing for trout. Great read.


    "If, when you pull a fly out you
    dont hear drums and cant smell
    chicken blood in the air, put it back
    in the box, for if it is evil you seek,
    then it can only be conjured with the
    same.
