Originally published in 1979, the "Universal Fly Tying Guide" by fly fishing expert Dick Stewart is aptly considered an essential reference for novice anglers wanting to improve their fly fishing performance. Now reprinted for a new generation of fly fishing anglers, the "Universal Fly Tying Guide" once again showcases more than 150 choice, make-them-yourself, fly patterns presented with full color illustration and step-by-step instruction. Very highly recommended for the novice fly fisherman, the "Universal Fly Tying Guide" continues to have much to offer even the more experienced fly fisherman and is a welcome addition to both personal and community library specialized reference collections on fishing.

If you are thinking of tying flies,buy this book.for the price you get all you need to know to get started.Don`t buy another advanced book until you tye 2 dozen of the examples in the book.I have been tying since 1948 and I wish I had this book then.

I bought this book for my adult daughter who is just starting to tie flies. This was the first book I purchased when I started tying in the '70s. I wanted her to have one as it is very good for beginners. Mine is in pieces but still gets used. Condition was new, delivery was fast, very satisfied with transaction.

I ordered this for my husband and he was thrilled! Best book out there!
