Synopsis

The definitive guide to tying the most successful and productive freshwater and saltwater flies of all time.      While there are thousands of flies available to anglers, many of the most popular are those that, by virtue of their fish-catching ability and unique construction methods, have stood the test of time. This indispensable resource features twenty quintessential fly patterns, including the Parachute Adams, Clouser Minnow, and Woolly Bugger. With detailed chapters exploring the history of and variations on each fly, interviews with fly originators, and step-by-step tying “recipes” and instructions, this is the perfect reference book for fly tiers of all abilities.  Published in association with The Orvis Company
