This book opened a new world of flytying materials for me to experiment with. Not to mention the flies also work. It is interesting to find materials in other places besides fly shops ie. craft stores. A great addition to my library.

This is the best fly tying manual I own. I am purchasing additional copies to give to family members who also tie flies as x-mas gifts.

Many new fly patterns that work!

Without a doubt the best book on fly tying I own. Admittedly it only embraces one form of tying (beads) but how well it covers this form of tying.
It is an easy to understand book with excellent photographs and plenty of imaginative but obviously successfull flies. I know as I have fished flies tied from patterns in this book & have caught Trout.
I recommend this book to all fly tyers whether only new to the art or skilled veterans.

If you tie for fun and not just to produce flies to fish with, you'll enjoy this book. It has patterns for trout, bass and panfish, salmon, and the salt.
Who doesn't want to dress up their flies a bit? This is a fun way to to that.

Very interesting book with some great patterns using beads as an adjunct to traditional tying methods. Raw materials are cheap and the range of patterns excellent. Found this to be a very worthwhile investment to compliment my fly tying library.
I have tied numerous patterns and await the season opening here in Australia to try them out. Think the bead stimulator will be a big winner this year.
