If you’re a fly-tier, no doubt you’ve wondered about how and where to procure some of the more esoteric tying materials to make your creations complete. The authors break down the wide variety of available materials into sensible bunches: natural feathers, furs, hairs, and hackles; man-made body, wing, and tail materials; dubbing; threads, tinsels, and flosses; dyes, paints, and pens; cements, epoxies, and varnishes; and tools, vices, hooks, and accessories. Further arranged in alphabetical order, materials are given brief descriptions followed by sales info. Serious fly-tiers will find this an indispensable guide.
This stunning, one-of-a-kind book provides anglers with a comprehensive directory of fly-tying materials from all over the world–with complete details on where to buy them. Closely tied to the text, 60 large-format color photographs vividly illustrate fly-tying materials and tools.
