"Despite the fact that no book on the dry fly can ever be complete, this one contains the best of what I've learned after tying dry flies for over 30 years. Here are long-established flies and others from fresh new perspectives, flies of complex construction, and others of utter simplicity - what they have in common is that all are practical; all can take trout with deadly efficiency." Chapters include: Components of the dry fly; Essential techniques; Mayfly imitations; Caddisfly imitations; Stonefly imitations; Terrestrial imitations; Traditional dry flies; Rough-water flies; Tiny flies; Highly visible flies; Basic techniques; Hackle - still the standard; Dry-fly materials; Tools; Hooks; Sensible fly design; Trends in dry-fly design; Additional dry-flies.
