The Flies

I just started to get into fly fishing and tying files. I started watching YouTube videos and almost all of your Instagram quick fly tie reels as will. Your books explain everything and they have the materials listed which is a big help for me. I love your books and work.

Great book

Very well illustrated and explained. It would have been nice to see all of the flies on one page at the beginning so you could go directly to a particular fly you want to tie. Still, the author is a master and I am enjoying it.
