Basic Techniques for Successful Fly Tying: A Lesson by Lesson Approach

Rating:
Summary: Best Basic Fly Tying Manual Yet
Review: As the title implies, this book covers a step by step basic approach to fly tying. After having read and tried, more than a dozen entry level books on this subject, all I can say is buy this book!
The authors take you step by step through each process, accumulating in a finished fly. They are meticulous in each step, repeating the last steps, while moving on to the next.
They also heed a valuable warning after each step, practice!
This book will not make you an instant fly tyer, nor is it meant to. It is designed to bring you along slowly, and methodically.
By far the best I have seen on the subject.
