Fly-fishing is a multifaceted sport that will absorb you in its reality, taking you to places of exceptional beauty, to explore and to revel in the solitude. It is so often spoken of as an art form while fly-tying, inextricably linked to fly-fishing, is in its own right a form of artistry.

South African Fishing Flies is a celebration of this artistry – the innovation, the talents of the originators and their vision of imagination, masters of the craft – and of all the fly-tyers of South Africa. It is not an exhaustive reference to all South African flies, but is rather an anthology of those that by virtue of their innovation in design, materials used and tying techniques have helped shape and, in some cases, change the thinking on fly-tying in this country.

It is also a visual celebration of these flies, the waters we fish, an introduction to some of the individuals in our fly-fishing community, and creators of South African flies.

Review This Product

Beautiful book

Sun, 28 Aug 2022 | Review by: Jaco T.

This book is excellent value for money. Beautiful photos and interesting stories behind the development of these popular South African flies, many of which I heard of for the very first time. It is not a guide on how to tie the flies but it does provide a list of the material. You should have a basic knowledge of tying to really benefit from this book. The beauty of this book is that it can also be used as a very good coffee table book.
