This essential book on fly tying will teach anyone how to tie
flies. All the important techniques are illustrated with colour
photographs, from starting the thread on the hook to whip
finishing. The book lays the basic ground work by fully explaining
simple tying techniques, and then progresses to detailed tying
instructions for some of the most popular, modern patterns. How to
choose and prepare the correct material, and all the necessary
tying steps for each fly, are detailed in superb, large, colour
photographs. Even if you have no previous tying experience, you'll
be able to tie dries, nymphs, streamers, saltwater offerings, and
bass bugs after just a few sessions with this book. The tyer is
then advised how to progress to similar patterns using the same
basic techniques. Also included is a huge reference of fly patterns
- more than four hundred flies from the Orvis catalog are shown in
full colour, along with the tying recipes and proportions for each
one. This book, drawing from the Orvis Company's vast resources and
teaching experience and written by an author whose name is
synonymous with Orvis, has become the bible for fly-tyers of all
skill levels.
