 Disappointing Jul 03, 2008
I hate to dis Lefty but this book was definitely a disappointment. First off this book is small and is more of a booklet than a book. Now at a price of $6.95 I might be ok with that but a list price of $16.95 is just insane. The other problem I have with the book is that there really isn't much information about fly fishing for bass. More than half of this little book is spent on the biology of large and smallmouth bass, and the locations and structure you will find them in. If that is what your interested in you can get this information from any of the other numerous books written on this subject. The one chapter on fly selection is ok, but again nothing ground breaking for anyone who is more than a complete novice.
I am still waiting for someone to put a decent book together on this subject.
 Just need it Jun 09, 2007
Just a great read and a few new methods to try out, the best bass book I've got so far.

Excellent info, horrible binding Feb 21, 2007
I echo all the positives of the book above. The info is great. Upon the second time through, pages begun to fall out and each time I read any part of the book more pages fall out. About 1/4 of the book is now loose leaf.
I want to buy Harry Murray's book on the same topic, but it is by the same publisher and I'm worried about the same problem.

Great Book Sep 28, 2006
This is a fantastic book. It covers the species specific information about fly fishing for bass. It is also very specific about which flies work and which ones do not. I'm sure that it will save me money. This book is not for someone with no background in fly fishing. No space is given to knots, terminology, etc. If you are new to fly fishing, read an introductory text before reading this book.

Fly Fishing For Bass Jun 15, 2004
I couldn't wait to get my hands on this book. Now that I have read it, I can truly say that it didn't disappoint. The writing is pure Lefty Kreh - Straight forward, understandable instruction on how to catch more and bigger bass with a fly rod. This book is not directed at novice fly fishers. Little space in this little book is devoted to teaching you how to tie knots or flies and the author assumes that you already know how to make the basic casts. The author simply tells you what rods and reels to choose, what lines, leaders and flies to use in a specific situation and how to fish them. If you do as he suggests, you will get satisfying results. Far from a dry "how to" book, this is a distillation of practical lessons learned over a lifetime of studying and pursuing the subject species. I wish a text like this had been available decades ago when I began to appreciate the challenges and rewards of warmwater fly fishing. It could have saved me a lot of wasted time and money. Since reading this book, I am catching more bass, more consistently than ever before.
