Looking to get a few good bass books to start reading now that the days are getting shorter. Ive done a search and came up with a few, but wanted some opinions. What are a few bass fishing books that you guys feel are insightful and worth reading? I already have Bill Murphys "In Pursuit of Giant Bass", and Doug Hannons "Big Bass Magic" en route to my house. What are some other good ones? 

Check out this thread -- lots of really good recommendations:

Personally, I really like the in-fisherman Largemouth and Smallmouth "handbook of strategies" books, which you can probably get super-cheap used on ebay or amazon. Also, if you can find a copy, "Knowing Bass" by Keith Jones is a canonical source for basic scientific information about bass physiology and behavior as it relates to angling.

 

I also have the two you mentioned, and both came very highly recommended, but I haven't gotten to them yet.

I have Bill Murphy's book but some of his tactics I was doing already. Still a good read.

I don't like Roland Martin because I heard he is mean to his fans

You mean, you really don't know, but you dislike him anyway? What if someone told you that

The In-Fisherman series on largemouths is pretty good reading.  Some of the material is repeated in the books, but overall, I think they're a great read.

 

But then again, I heard the Lindner boys are mean to Glenn's fans, or something like that....  

 

Tight lines,

Phht, Glenn's fans? Lolololol!

I like th In-Fisherman books, Spoonplugger series, and the Murphy book.
