As always, his photos are among the very best in the business . . .Guide to Fly Tying is an excellent cornerstone for any fly-tying library."-Art Scheck, editor, Fly Tyer
Acclaimed tier and master teacher Dick Talleur presents the fundamentals and key techniques for tying all the popular patterns, with step-by-step color photos and explicit text showing every nuance of the process. This book builds on Talleur's classic reference, Mastering the Art of Fly Tying, one of the first to go beyond the simple recipe-photo format to provide detailed explanations of technique. That book taught a generation of fly fishers how to tie; Guide to Fly Tying offers the same scope and approach while incorporating the latest in materials, tools, and techniques.
Dick Talleur has written 10 books on fly tying and fly fishing, is a columnist for American Angler and Fly Tyer, and has produced 14 videos on fly tying. He teaches fly tying and fishes all over the world. He lives in New Hampshire.
