In The Orvis Guide to
Beginning Fly Tying, Eric Leiser shows how to take such basic materials
such as hooks, threads, fur, and feathers and make them into effective
flies that catch fish. He demonstrates the crucial tying techniques needed
to dub bodies, tie in tails and hackle, and create upright wings on dry
flies. Step by step, he takes the novice tyer through the skills necessary
to tie such classic as the Woolly bugger, the Hare's Ear, the Leadwing
Coachman, the Black-Nose Dace, and the Hendrickson dry-fly. At the end of
each chapter, he offers variations on these basic patterns to make a
variety of other useful flies.
