best book for a beginner

[redcrbbr]

thank you for all the responses. i recently won a very nice fly fishing set up from the raffle at the mass bass show last weekend. to be honest with you i'm a little hesitant to use this stuff. if any of you folks know me.. i am just a bit bruttle on my fishing gear. later today i will be going over to a friends place and he is a full blown fly fishing addict, he is going to help me out with a few pointers. I am looking forward to this. I'll let you know how i make out. thanks again...
