Product Description
Following the incredible success of The Fly Tier s Benchside Reference, this popular duo has created another unique fly-tying book. The first 25 pages of this oversized, hardcover spiral-bound book are filled with fly-tying techniques, the last 164 pages are cut horizontally across the page. The top half of the page shows tying steps for numerous patterns, and includes references to techniques that are explained step by step in the bottom half. Now you are free to look at the fly you are tying, while getting detailed instructions on a specific technique required for that fly. This groundbreaking book is sure to thrill all fly tiers.

5 out of 5 stars Comprehensive, easy to read and follow.   July 11, 2008
I purchased this book about a year ago, and I have found it to be every bit as helpful as the other posters on this site have already attested.

The book is well illustrated, printed on thick paper, and both ingenious and unique in it's presentation of the patterns and the techniques needed in tying.

I work overseas most of the time, so I do almost all of my shopping via Amazon... I don't write too many reviews, but a year later here I am singing the praises of this great book.

It is worth every penny, and would happily pay double if I had to replace the copy I currently own.



5 out of 5 stars Best Idea ever   April 1, 2008
This is the best how to book format I have ever seen. It is so great. It just makes sense to have spilt pages with the recipe on the top half of the page and instructions for the different techniques on the bottom half. It has helped me to understand fly tieing so much. Great book.


4 out of 5 stars EVERY NEW/INTERMEDIATE FLY TYER NEEDS THIS BOOK   August 20, 2007
I have several fly tying books, of which, none can approach this book in explaining how to tye flies. The way this book is laid out is a clear advantage. I feel that most anyone will benefit who is interested in tying. A person can purchase a less expensive book on tying, but remember the old saying, "buy the best and cry once."

5 out of 5 stars Awesome!   June 26, 2007

If you are thinking of getting started in fly tying,this IS the book to purchase. It will be your last and only book that you will need to purchase on this subject. It is extremely easy to navigate and takes the mystery out of fly tying techniques. Even seasoned veterans might find an easier technique to use. I would recommend it to family and friends!


5 out of 5 stars Excellent book   April 13, 2007
Probably one of the best books I have bought for the instruction of fly tying. Highly recommend.
