Good Flies: Favourite Trout Patterns and How They Got That Way
John Gierach
Offers a glimpse into the mind of the fly fisherman, and focuses on the trout flies he has found most successful and how he ties them. This book includes chapters on how he developed as a fly-tyer - from being a hopeless tinkerer who tried every pattern there was to setting on a large handful of favourite patterns that catch most of his trout.
