NYMPHS FOR STREAMS and STILLWATERS. By Dave Hughes.
2009 1st edition. Large 4to (222 x 286mm). Pp372. Colour plates of flies, colour photographs throughout, bibliography. Red boards, spine titled in gilt.
This book "is destined to be the only step by step reference to tying and fishing every nymph you'll ever need. Filled with good advice, it is one of the most thorough and enjoyable books about selecting, tying and fishing nymphs that has ever been written. With over nine hundred photographs of nymphs and their imitations, you'll learn what nymphs you should tie, how to tie them, and where and how to fish them in order to catch more trout." Part one covers practical entomology, tools, materials and some techniques. Parts two and three cover moving waters, the fly patterns and their construction as well as nymph selection. Part four covers stillwaters, where food species often differ from those of rivers and streams, and where trout often feed more selectively.
