I started doing Isometrics when I got Ross Enamait's 'Never Gymless', but they didn't have many exercises in it. Does anyone know any good sites with loads of isometric exercises?

I don't think there are many
suppose you train at home like ross with dumbells and bars
so basicly every movment you can load more wegiht or get into a harder position and hold it.. I reccomend doing it form many angles though , I done a mistake with one arm pullups to do holds from only one angle and I havent strengthned the rest too much...
There are a few types of isometrics:

Na, I'm doing body-weight only, so I'm looking for exercises that incorpate things like wall presses and towell pulls.

Dude, go to the beginning of the isometric chapter again. It explains what an isometric exercise is and where you can find them in the book and what you can do.

you know , that isometric catagory tree I posted is the same for BW , For example
trying to do one arm chins on a scale , or holding a weighted chin for time or so
