Looking for a few recommendations of Fly Fishing for Smallmouth Books.
I dont have Clousers yet but its on my list.

I have:
Smallmouth Strategies for the Fly Rod - Will Ryan

Two very good ones are:

Fly Fishing For Smallmouth by Bob Clouser and Smallmouth Fly Fishing by Tim Holschlag. Holschlag's book is the best for content and general info but Clouser's book has great photography and is stronger on flies and forage. Both are excellent.
