This innovative book is surely the most thorough and detailed investigation of the use of the small fly yet written. Selective trout, in part created by the advanced sophistication of anglers and the increased popularity of tailwaters and stillwater fisheries, have made the use of small patterns, size 18 and under, a growing necessity for successful fly fishing. Darrel Martin explores every facet of this demanding "sport within a sport." This book takes a creative approach to the problems of tying and fishing the small fly. Chapters detail aquatic insects significant to the angler; the best tying materials, tying methods, and patterns; hook choice; tackle; and the casting tactics, presentations, and methods of playing hooked fish demanded by the use of tiny flies. Micropatterns offers a vast amount of information never before available. |
