Fishing Q&A
What is the ultimate fly fishing book?
The last two years Ive got into fly fishing. What I am looking for now is a fly fishing book that will help me fish the proper fly for the time of season with retrieving tips etc. I mostly fish scottish loch and dams with stocked rainbow and brownies in the hope of moving onto sea trout fishing and salmon if I get good at this. It would also be helpful if I could find a book that will teach me new rig tying skills, ie how to tie fly line onto backing and how to tie a leader line onto fly line without using braided leaders. Thanks in advance for your tips.

- Have a look for Fly Fishing by J R Hartley. I've heard that's good!

- how do you fish for fly`s
- Fly Fishing for Idiots I would presume.
- Here is a wonderful, informative website that caters to the flyfishing enthusiast from beginners to advanced anglers. Everything from casting methods to theory for the masters of the art. I spent a good deal of time looking over all the links and it is a very impressive website. It's called Sexyloops Flycasting and though the name would imply otherwise it only deals with the art of flycasting. Give it a look sometime: http://www.sexyloops.com/flycasting/contents.shtml
- What a surprise, I envisaged the J'RHrtley answers as I read your question. The best bet is to get to your local library or bookshop and thumb through a few books to find out what suits you.
