Recommended reading for all fly fishers?
I have a mild case of ADD so reading is very difficult for me, especially those thick books.
I did gather a pretty large library of books on fly fishing because I was interested to learn more.
I would try to read as much as you can of the real classic books that are out there and really cheap now.
