I read a review about this book and asked Santa for Christmas. I must have been a good boy. I must say I really enjoy it, and I'm already tying some of the flies. There was some talk in another thread about a fly being to simple. Well... I'll let you know after I try some them on my favorite Blue Ribbon streams. I would also point out this would be a great gift or suggestion for someone new to fly tying. In addition to the simple flies, the book starts off with a decent, not great, how to section.
PS... I actually got two of them, so if you want to buy an extra copy let me know before I return it.
