Western Rivers
Some books just have it all: great images, well written text, large format, beautiful typography and all the nice graphic details. But very few have gold print.
This one has! And it deserves it.
Ralph Kyllloe covers Western streams and lodges from Alaska to California.

The Rise
"The Rise" is Paul Schullery's latest book where he digs into many theories of fly fishing. With his typical well researched style, Schullery takes up an issue and heads to the library, figuratively if not literally. It is not only exceedingly well researched, it's a good read.

Clousers Flies
The bulk of the book deals with the different fly patterns that Bob has developed over the years, including of course the classic Clouser Deep Minnow, as well as some variations such as the Fir Strip Clouser, Rattle Clouser, Super Hair Deep Minnow, Half and Half, and so on.

The Trout Whisperers
This is the first fly fishing novel I have ever read, so I don’t have anything to compare it to. I’m also not a literary critic. The best I can offer is the perspective of the target audience – a fly fisherman who enjoys reading books.

Nymph-Fishing
Rick Hafele's been the entomology columnist for American Angler magazine for years, co-authored "The Complete Book of Western Hatches", and did the video "Anatomy of a Trout Stream". With "Nymph-Fishing Rivers and Streams", he brings it all together with an excellent textbook and a 72 minute DVD.

A Passion for Steelhead
Dec Hogan is well known in the fly fishing world as a master of the two-handed fly rod, but until I picked up "A Passion for Steelhead" I did not know much about Dec Hogan the angler. 313 pages later, that surely has changed.
