I didn’t Isaak Walton did. here is the bible of fly fishing: http://www.biblio.com/book/compleat-angler-contemplative-mans-recreation-being/d/247848039?aid=frg&utm_source=google&utm_medium=product&utm_campaign=feed-details&gclid=Cj0KEQjwmKG5BRDv4YaE5t6oqf0BEiQAwqDNfEzhJ9WSl3CZFMaNigDxOmDiI6ECg4eCUaTxXlps3FkaApir8P8HAQ
this is a must, too. it’s kind of based on the Compleat Angler … http://www.amazon.com/The-River-Why-Twentieth-Anniversary-Edition/product-reviews/1578050847

The River Why is like a cult classic. it’s been years since I read it. if I recall it’s to do with fly fishing, the river, the Compleat Angler, and the meaning of life.
