From Field to Fly: The Fly Tier's Guide to Skinning and Preserving Wild Game

Book by Seymour, Scott J.

If you are a fly tyer, you are painfully aware of the high cost of tying materials. This book provides an alternative to paying for expensive materials. It is a comprehensive guide on how to prepare wild game (birds, large and small game) for fly tying at very little cost. It encourages using materials typically discarded by hunters. The book also features over 40 successful patterns tied almost exclusively with wild game including deer, rabbit, squirrel, pheasant, turkey, ducks, etc. It is very satisfying to catch trout with a fly you tied using materials taken from a deer or pheasant harvested in previous fall hunts. This book is the first of its kind and, at such a low price, is a resource that all fly fishers, tyers and hunters should add to their personal libraries without hesitation.
