basslover12345 Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 I was wondering what bass fishing books you guys suggest I should read, Right now I am reading Tom Mann's Secrets of the BASS pros and Roland Martin's 101 tips book...... but what are some other books I should read that I would benefit from reading......... As you might see.... I LOVE READING, especially aboit bass fishing. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted December 30, 2010 Super User Posted December 30, 2010 Anything by Buck Perry. Quote
Super User deaknh03 Posted December 30, 2010 Super User Posted December 30, 2010 Bill Murphy's book about giant bass is the best bass book I have read, and I have stacks of bass books and magazines. Quote
basslover12345 Posted December 30, 2010 Author Posted December 30, 2010 I just ordered Buck Perry's Structure Situation Guide......... Quote
0119 Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 Double Whammy by Carl Hiaasen. Its fiction but totally supports my opinion of tournaments! Otherwise anything written by Homer Circle. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted December 30, 2010 Super User Posted December 30, 2010 Double Whammy by Carl Hiaasen. Its fiction but totally supports my opinion of tournaments! Otherwise anything written by Homer Circle. What's that? All tournament anglers are cheaters? LMAO. : Quote

basslover12345 Posted December 30, 2010 Author Posted December 30, 2010 Is denny Brauer's Jig fishing book worth buying? Quote
OHIO Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 I have Jackpot Bassin. It teaches some techniques and has some good info in it, but it's the only one I have read so I can't really compare it to others. Quote
SeanW Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 Bill Murphy's book about giant bass is the best bass book I have read, and I have stacks of bass books and magazines. +1 Quote
Go Time Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 KVD Bass Strategies X2 And Mike Iaconelli's Fishing on the Edge. This book has some tips in it but it's basically his biography. It really puts the sacrifices of being a pro into perspective. I gained a TON of respect for the man because of this book. Quote
Super User Jigfishn10 Posted December 30, 2010 Super User Posted December 30, 2010 Is denny Brauer's Jig fishing book worth buying? I believe he has 2 books now. I thought Jig Fishing Secrets was good. Quote
bass or bass ? Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 The L.L.Bean "Fly fishing for Bass Handbook". 2nd edition, by Dave Whitlock. If you fly fish for bass, you MUST own this book. Quote
Super User *Hootie Posted December 31, 2010 Super User Posted December 31, 2010 The BBZ and Pursuit For Giant Bass. x2 Quote
Super User fishfordollars Posted December 31, 2010 Super User Posted December 31, 2010 Bass Wars X2, just picked it up this week and read it for the fourth time. It never gets old. Quote
jbtcardfan Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Fishing Basics" by Mike Toth. Seriously. You gotta learn how to crawl before you learn how to walk. Quote
Super User deaknh03 Posted December 31, 2010 Super User Posted December 31, 2010 Not really a book, but I recently was turned on to Bass Angler magazine, and I love it, not cheap but tons of articles and good ones at that! Quote
MFBAB Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 The Compleat TN Angler - Summerlin/Markham - Must have for TN guys Spoonplugging - Buck Perry Lunker - Bob Underwood Knowing Bass - Keith Jones - This book is based on Berkley research but it isn't about selling Powerbait or Gulp, pretty good read. In Fisherman Largemouth and Smallmouth handbooks are both good In Pursuit of Giant Bass - Bill Murphy Both KVD books are pretty good 101 Bass Catching Secrets - Roland Martin - Laugh it up, this is a really good one River Smallmouth Fishing - Tim Holschlag - This is a new book, it is way more informative and detailed than Holschlags previous book "Stream Smallmouth Fishing," which wasn't half bad either. Big Bass Magic - Doug Hannon Bass Tactics - Larry Larsen Slider Fishin - Charlie Brewer John Hope's Trackin' Trophies - Jesse Miller Those aren't in any particular order and some are out of print but they are all full of good fishing info in one way or another. Now, If I could just get the Bass to read a few of these.... Quote
Super User deaknh03 Posted December 31, 2010 Super User Posted December 31, 2010 I like that doug hannon one also, he's livin the dream.. Quote
MFBAB Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 The L.L.Bean "Fly fishing for Bass Handbook". 2nd edition, by Dave Whitlock. If you fly fish for bass, you MUST own this book. Dave Whitlock is one of the all time greats in fly fishing for sure, several good books and inventor of many great bass and trout fly patterns. Quote
DTack Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 As far as a read goes, not instructional, I LOVED sowbelly I was so entertained by that book, especially Bob Crupi's part... Just awesome in my eyes. Quote
