With over 90,000 sold in its first edition, this is "a classic book from a highly respected tier" (Jay Cassell, Deputy Editor, Field & Stream).

Here is a book for fly tiers, beginners and experts alike, that provides foolproof directions for tying all types of flies. Unlike specialized books that describe particular types or styles of flies, this book covers them all—both freshwater and saltwater flies. Dry flies for trout, streamers for tarpon, hair bugs for bass: you will find them here. Eric Leiser teaches the basic methods for tying standard dries, hair dries, parachute dries, hackleless flies, wets, nymphs, streamers, Jassids and other terrestrials, and more. Whether you're a seasoned tier looking for specific advice, or you're brand new to the craft and just want the fundamentals, this book is a complete education. 50 b/w illus., 16 b/w photos.

Eric Leiser, a master fly tier, teacher, and expert on the materials of the craft is the author of Fly Tying Materials, as well as co-author with Larry Solomon of The Caddis and the Angler. He lives in Cape Coral, Florida.
