Summary: Buy This Book First -- Save Lots of Money!
Review: This is the best basic overview of fly fishing on the market today. It's fun to read, wonderfully illustrated, and very helpful. I recommend it to all my fly fishing friends as a good buy. With this book in your library, you'll reduce needed shelf space and save tons of money to spend on gadgets and gear. Trust me on this one. The others just don't measure up. Get it, read it, and enjoy hooking up with loads of fish. And, by the way -- be sure to always practice "catch and release". Leave the waters full for others. Thank you kindly.
