Basic Fly Tying: All the Skills and Tools You Need to Get Started

Stackpole Books launches its new line of how-to books this fall, beginning with Basic Fly Tying: All the Skills and Tools You Need to Get Started, edited by Jon Rounds, with Wayne Luallen consulting on the details. ""You can begin with a modest kit. Don't be intimidated,"" the authors implore. They take readers through the basics and techniques for tying such flies (or ""patterns"") as the Beadhead Pheasant Tail Nymph and the Marabou Muddler. More than 300 accompanying photos provide extra guidance, and the spiral binding offers ease of use. The series continues with Candle Making.
