The Fly-Fisher's Craft: The Art and History

An artificial fly may be little more than a bit of fur or feather, bead, tinsel, and thread wrapped around the shank of a fishing hook, but for many fly fishers, there is no better way to pass the time between fishing excursions than crafting one of these miniature gems. In The Fly Fisher's Craft, veteran fly tyer and designer Darrel Martin examines fly design and tying techniques, both historic and modern. Abundant photographs and illustrations by the author guide you on this enthralling journey, told with some surprises along the way. Sure to appeal to both the novice and the expert, The Fly Fisher's Craft is a book for the curious and creative fly fisher. This description may be from another edition of this product.
