[Book Review] Trout Flies for Rivers: Patterns from the West that Work Everywhere

Who’s interested in a trout fly pattern that works everywhere? Ok, everywhere might be a bit of a stretch but authors Carol Ann Morris and Skip Morris sure cover the bases with this new book filled with both hot new flies and proven, reliable standards plus tips on how, where, and when to fish these patterns.
626 Trout Fly Patterns
So what are you doing for the next two years? Well, you could tie one new fly pattern from this book everyday (we’ll give you Sunday off) because that is how long it will take you! Don’t worry though this book provides step-by-step instructions for tying some of the most effective trout flies for rivers across North America. If you are a visual learner (like me) then you will love the DVD that is included with clear instructions on 31 critical fly-tying techniques.
Even Flymphs
Hundreds of color photographs show top and side views of 626 premier patterns covering mayflies, caddis, stoneflies, midges, terrestrials, wet flies, soft hackles, attractor patterns, “tiny fish” (streamers), leeches and even flymphs (don’t worry we’ll explain these in another post). If you are looking to spice up your fly boxes with some different patterns this is an excellent reference book.
