"Fly Fishing, the Book Series" was begun in 2010 as a collaboration between my father, Gary (GB) and myself. This planned 20-book series will explore a huge range of fly-fishing topics over 5+ years. The books are available signed and personalized by GB from his eBay store. Unsigned copies (at the basic retail price) are available here or from other angling book retailers.
THE SERIES PASS
A special "Series Pass" for all 20 books is also being offered. One million words, all fly fishing!
