I was going through my bookcase and pulled out a few favorites:

Finesse Fishing-Michael Jones

Serious Bass Fishing- Troy/Mike Folkstad

Small Stream Bass-Tim Holshlag

got any good ones?

Not new, and I'm sure you have it, but for the  new guys:  Smallmouth Bass an In-Fisherman Handbook of Strategies.  It's everything you need to get started.

That's one I surely want, I have the LMB edition and it is good.

You guys should read " In pusuit of giant bass" by the late Bill Murphy. It is the trophie hunters bible.

The techniques and stratagies will work anywhere and that book has definatley helped me catch more big fish.

I also like "tracking Trophies" by John Hope, I think  :-[

in this book the author puts transmiters in big bass and studies there habits in there natual inviroments

Very intresting

One I like is "Bass Wisdom" by Uncle Homer. Ive seem to miss-placed it though...

Horatio Hornblower - a series by Forrester.

Fast moving and historical.

Sharp's Rifles a series by Bernard Cornwell.

Both are based on actual land and sea battles during the Napoleonic war and gives information never learned in history class.

Get the videos if the books are not suitable to the type of stuff you read, but the writing is fast paced and many of the character, real people. They should be read in chronological order.

Although I'm not a huge fan of Larry Larsen, I'm reading all of his Florida specific location books as I'll be moving down there this summer.

I'm currently reading "the moon pulled up an acre of bass" by Peter Kaminsky. It's about striped bass fishing on Montauk Point, New York. So far so good. ;D

One that I really enjoyed was Think Like a Fish by Tom Mann of Mann Bait Company.  There's not a lot of fishing technique and stuff, but it is a great read by a legend in the business.  Made me laugh -- made me cry.  Check it out if you get a chance.

I really only started bass fishing at the end of this last summer.  I found "The Bass Angler's Almanac" by John Weiss at the library.  I started a bass fishing notebook to take with me this season based on much of the information in this book.  A VERY good reference to start with for all you Newbies!!!

BASSIN WITH TH PROS is at any barnes and noble also the bass fishermans bible is a n excellent choice. i wish a bass pro would write a biography

It doesn't have any fishing tips and techniques if that is what you are looking for, but Bass Boss is a good book. It takes you through Ray Scott's life and then how he created the largest sportfishing organization B.A.S.S.

I am reading Roland Martin's 101 Bass-Catching Secrets. It is a pretty good book. A lot of information.

Recently blazed through both of Kevin Van Dam's books. They were both great! Bass Stategies and Secrets Of A Champion. I got mine at BPS, check 'em out.
