The Library - for when you can’t fish
The Flyfisher’s Playbook - by Duane Redford
Duane goes through all the fundamentals of fly fishing and presents a systematic approach to nymphing, covering water, and finding fish. I highly recommend this book to any beginning angler. It’s a great reference as you go down the road as well.

Dances with Trout - by John Gierach
Witty, philosophical, and humble are some of the words I think of when describing John Gierach’s work. Dances with Trout answers the question of why we chase fish the way we do, laughing all the way. Rest in peace John, and thank you for what you’ve left us.
