Identifying Anglers' Flies is an essential pocket guide for all game fishermen and woman. A concise introduction outlines the logical steps to making the choice of fly effective and straightforward, explores the main insects of interest to anglers, and describes basic fly fishing techniques using dry and wet patterns. A fully illustrated directory features more than 110 imitative and non-imitative patterns, providing in each case details of the dressing and advice on how best to fish the artificial fly to behave like a real insect. At-a-glance symbols offer a simple reference and a concluding glossary unravels fishing and entomological jargon. From emerging mayflies and swarming midges to the March Brown Nymph and the CDC Spent, Identifying Anglers; Flies provides a solid base of information, eliminating much of the hit and miss of fly fishing. Full colour photographs throughout. Good condition. Hardcover, 20cm x 15cm, 80 pages.
