By Fishalot from SW Missouri on 09/10/2009 Pros: Easy To Use, Great Design Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is the book that I learned to tie with 30 years ago. My buddy had a copy and I was able to learn everything I know from it. Great time-tested patterns. Recommended for any fly-tier
Excellent, quality instruction By VF from Woodinville, WA on 09/03/2009 Describe Yourself: Casual Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is an excellent manual of basic Western fly patterns. The instructions and materials for all 52 flies shown in the book are there - wet, dry, nymphs, and streamers - some, with variations also listed. The instructions and their photographs are in black and white, but there are 4 color plates in the center of the book with color photographs of all of the flies discussed. The book is spiral bound and so can be folded back on itself or laid flat to work with. There are 2 DVDs included in this set - Tying Western Trout Flies, and Understanding Fly Tying Basics. PLEASE NOTE - the 2nd DVD listed above contains the same exact footage as the 2 DVDs in the Jack Dennis "Fly Tying Basics and Materials" DVD set also offered on STP, an excellent instructional set. So, if you buy this item, you don't need to get "Fly Tying Basics and Materials", you'll already have it. With this set, you get the book, both of those DVDs and the Western Trout Fly Tying DVD - a great value.
A must have for the novice fly tyer By PJ from Evergreen, Colorado on 08/06/2009 Describe Yourself: Avid Fisher Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The information in the DVDs really help the descriptions that are in the book. This is a great addition for anyone just starting out in fly tying.
