Freshwater Life This book gives you the opportunity to make a connection with aquatic animals. You can watch these images over and over again. It is also full of information in the texts and pictures.	Nymphenfischen My heart beats for specialty books rather than general ones, and a large book solely on nymphing is definitely something that stirs my interest. Even a German language one.	Making Better Flies This book is mainly on saltwater flies in spite of the title, and it doesn’t impress - or tell you how to design, develop or improve.
The Fly Fisher A large and beautiful book about the concept of fly fishing covering the subject from many angles, lavishly illustrated with amazing photos.	Farlows Salmon Flies This book is pretty exotic and definitely not for the average fly tyer. But if you are interested in classic salmon flies and their history, it's a book you must have on your shelves.	Fleye Design Bob Popovics can rightfully be called one of the most innovative fly tyers today. And he keeps on sharing new methods in his latest book.
Haynes Fly Fishing Manual The publisher Haynes is probably best known for their car repair manuals, but also has instruction manuals for many other things, fly fishing included	The Lost Salmon Flies of Balmoral If you are into classic salmon flies - like the real classics - and like to divulge in their history and origin, this is a book for you.	GT Wow! I just have to say wow! GT's are just... wow... and this book is like… wow!
Fly-casting Finesse I'm not a big fan of learning to cast from a book, but there's little doubt that this book can actually make you a better fly caster. And it features a remote controlled dry training shark!	Observation This is a great book, and a really excellent intro to reading the water and matching the hatch for the angler who feels that both these disciplines are difficult. It clearly illustrates that they don't have to be.	Perrault's Standard This might not look like the most exciting book I own. It isn't valuable. It isn't particularly beautiful either – rather ugly actually. Still it's one of the gems in my collection.
