Fly Fisher's Pattern Book

Rating:
Summary: VERY DISAPPOINTED!
Review: I recently purchased this book along with several others by different authors. This book has a number of good qualities such as one fly pattern per page, large print( for us older fishers), and a good description of the fly and the process. However , all of this is overshadowed by the absence of colour photos of the flies. This could have been accomplished by including a colour photo on each page or at the very least several pages of colour photos for reference. Since appearance and colour play such an important role in fly patterns it is difficult to understand why the colour photos were overlooked. I would not recommend this book, the publisher has done a disservice to the author.
