Over 900 popular fly patterns from Britain and Ireland are featured: the majority are traditional and widely used but some are regional specialities whose reputation has spread beyond the place of origin. From Blue-Winged Olive to Foam-Headed Muddler, the selection includes dry and wet flies and will appeal to purist and modernist alike." "The author has made a point of consulting the creators of many of the patterns for their own views and comments. Of the 433 fly patterns illustrated in colour, over 200 have actually been tied by their inventors." . Seller Inventory # 32513
