Good fly casting instructional book

#1

Post by RSalar »

It seems like there are lots of books on casting, but many are outdated and the info is just wrong. What’s the most up to date, current and most consistent with current thinking, casting book available today? Not necessarily for beginners but for intermediate to higher level casting.

Thanks,

Ron

Flycasting, so simple that instructors need to make it complicated since 1685

It's an exploration; bring a flyrod.

Nope that was his first book. That one was harder to digest IMO.
