DISCOVER SOME OF THE BEST DRY FLY TYERS YOU NEVER HEARD OF!
What you will see on the inside pages of this book are 125 of the Best Dry Fly Tyers you never heard of: These are not professionals, just passionate fishermen who may have to go to work in the morning, or attend to family or chores during the day, but then maybe, when the sun sets, they will sit down, possibly grab a cold one, shuffle up to their tying vises, and disappear into another world by tying some of their own fly creations.
Or maybe even tie their versions of historic patterns that have been established by other great tyers generations ago. They love trying to imitate the natural insects by choosing materials that will replicate these loating flies, and hopefully fool a fish into accepting their work of art.
So we honor and dedicate this book to them - the unnoticed, the undiscovered, the everyday dry fly artists that just love to he flies and fish them!
"Besides the obvious fly tying people who write books or make videos, there are so many talented and innovative tyers in the world who don't blow their own horns and quietly develop fly patterns that are gorgeous versions of classic patterns, or ground-breaking recipes that utilize new materials, or older materials, in interesting ways. Peter Nilsen shares these tyers and their patterns with us, and the world of fly tying is all the better for introducing us to these talents and their creations."
