- Sport Fly Fishing
Clearer than photography, more life-like than drawings, the graphic instructions show, by subtle emphasis and exaggeration, precisely what to do.
Included are all the basic techniques for applying thread, feather and fur to the hook, and more sophisticated methods such as parachute hackling, using the dubbing loop and hairwinging.
12 key trout patterns demonstrate the most important flytying techniques.
* Black Ghost (ribbing & hairwing)
* Woolly Bugger (palmered hackle dressing)
* Duck's Dun (cul de canard dressing)
* Gray Wulff (bucktail dry fly technique)
* Elk Hair Caddis (dubbing & hairwing)
* Parachute Emerger (parachute dressing)
* Ginger Quill (wet fly wings and throat hackle)
* Black Pennell (wet hackling)
* Goldhead Hare's Ear (weighted goldhead & natural dubbing)
* Montana Nymph (nymph hackling, marabou tails)
* Pheasant Tail Nymph (pheasant tail fibers & copper wire)
* Shrimp/Scud (wire weighting & synthentic dubbing)"

Store description
BookLovers of Bath is based in the rural idyll of Peasedown St. John in Somerset (God's Own Country) in the south west of England and actually very nearly in Bath. After 20 years of being “internet only” I have now opened a shop, Fact or Fable, in the premises of our now-closed Post Office. With over 10,000 books in my, recently shrunken, storage unit and another 5,000 or so in the shop I run an old-fashioned book business with every book listed, graded, picked, packed and posted by my own fair hand… abetted by my Jack Russells who are really, not, helpful.…
