 
The Orvis Fly-Fishing Guide, Completely Revised and Updated with Over 400 New Color Photos and Illustrations (Orvis) (Paperback)
by Tom Rosenbauer; 2007; 288pp; isbn 1592288189
Now for the first time in full color, The Orvis Fly-Fishing Guide appears in a completely revised and updated edition that solidifies its place as the flagship title of the Orvis books. A best-selling, fully illustrated, and comprehensive book, this large-format volume has been required reading for every angler for the past two decades. reviewed:"New Edition of Great How-to Book This is the new edition of one of the best books for introducing anyone to the sport of fly fishing, whether the angler wants to shop for equipment at Orvis or Wal-Mart. The information is clearly explained without going into tedious details that novices (and experienced anglers) don't want. Everything is covered here--from rod types to fly lines to casting basics. The excellent graphics are helpful--especially of the knots. Some books have knot instructions that are impossible to follow--"knot" so here! For someone who wants to start fly fishing, this book would make a great start. Orvis no doubt added the color illustrations to compete with "L.L.Bean's Handbook to Fly-Fishing" (another excellent "How to" book). So, if you're looking for "How to" info, this is the book to get; for inspiration (both about fishing and life itself), pick up Schreiber's novel, "Life on the Fly." reviewed:"Great Book I would say this book along with the L.L. Bean Ultimate Book of Fly Fishing are the two single best resources available for new fly fisherman. Both have tons of information and both have wonderful color pictures and diagrams. I would not hesitate to order either book. In fact, at the time of this review both books are priced identically here at Amazon. If you must pick only one of the two books I would give the slightest of nods to the LL Bean book. Why? Because it has about 50 additional pages and a better section on fly tying. On a scale of 1-10 I'd give the LL Bean book a 9.5 and I'd give the Orvis book a 9.0. Either way you are going to get a fantastic resource."
