+1. Scott Haugen has a book I have seen at Bobs too. I think the Title is 300 Tips to catching more salmon and steelhead. Thats a lot of tips. If you go to the Amato Books site there should be a list of a crap load of technique specific books.

My best advise would be to not try and learn or master everything at once. Focus on a specific technique for a particular system. If you are going to be primarily targeting steelhead in smaller systems I would strongly suggest on focusing on a bobber and jig approach.I believe It is one of the easier techniques to get the hang of and it will put fish on the bank and build confidence. The first step is to figure out where you want to fish and what will be in that system and whem.

We all have to start somewhere. My appologies if I was a dick.
