 L.L. Bean Ultimate book of Fly Fishing Apr 20, 2010
This book is very well done and has a wealth of good information. Unfortunately it is presented as the Ultimate "Fly Fishing " book but a great deal of the book is devoted to Fly Tying not Fly Fishing . Had I know that this much of the book was on Fly tying I would not have bought the book..

 Better Than The Orvis Fly-Fishing Guide Aug 11, 2009
This book was much more informative to a new trout fisherman than the Amazon recommended The Orvis Fly-Sishing Guide, Completely Revised and Updated with Over 400 New Color Photos and Illustrations. I bought both books, along with The Orvis Guide to Beginning Fly Fishing: 101 Tips for the Absolute Beginner, as a package from Amazon. This book was quite a bit more informative than the Orvis book. While expected promotion of the Orvis brand, the Orvis book is practically a sales catalog for the Orvis brand, whereas the LL Bean book focused more on casting techniques and other much needed information, that was less in depth with the Orvis book. Also, the Orvis book dedicates way too many pages to fly tying, well over 1/3rd of the book, an art that is surely lost on the beginner fly fisherman. I firmly believe that most new fly fisherman will buy flys for quite a while before beginning to tie their own. There is so much to learn and practice in fly fishing to take on the art of fly tying in my opinion.

 excellent all around beginner's book Aug 05, 2009
I just started fly fishing and this book has proved to be an excellent buy. recommend that anyone interested in the sport first invest in themselves by taking a lesson from a professional fly fishing instructor (i found mine on craigslist in Houston - Robert Logan - highly recommend him). after you take a basic lesson, this book makes a lot of sense and provides you with indepth science of fly fishing as well as insane amount of pictures, drawings, and step by step instructions on how to do it all - from soup to nuts. does do a very light sell on LL Bean products/services, but nothing overbearing or too in your face.

Everything I need Jun 20, 2009
I am a complete neophyte to fly fishing.
This book covers every detail which I can think of. It might as well be an encyclopedia for fly fishing.
