4.0 out of 5 stars Very good, better than most, December 20, 2001

"shop226032" (WINCHESTER, VA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Art of Tying the Nymph (Paperback)

Excellent book, easy to understand, lots of detail, everthing made very clear. Some might say there are too few patterns in book, I disagree. The patterns that are included work and will form the base to tie any other nymph pattern out there. The only reason it didn't get 5 stars, many of the patterns are of Mr. Morris's own design(though they do work). So if traditional patterns are what you are looking for thas may not be it. Just guessing about 75% are traditional, 25% Morris patterns. A very small gripe in my opinion.

I really enjoyed his step by step illustrations but found the number of fly patterns lacking in his book.
