"Nymphs are the easiest and least expensive flies to tie. On their first attempts at the vise, beginners can usually tie a fly that will catch fish. For these reasons, beginninng fly tyers are urged to start tying nymphs. In addition, nymphs constitute up to 90 percent of a trout's diet, and, nymph fishing, once mastered, is the most effective angling method." This book "will show you how to tie perfect nymphs in the most efficient manner possible. Tying instructions are presented in a fun and easy to understand manner. Over 800 concise colour photos take you step-by-step through 23 demonstration patterns that are presented in a logical sequence. Once these demonstration patterns are mastered, you will be able to construct all 125 patterns detailed in this book."
