New Zealand Fly Tying
It's
my pleasure to introduce my readers to New Zealand Fly Tying — one
of the best books on fly tying the beginner could possibly
read.
This book is crammed with illustrations and easy to follow
instructions for tying dry flies, wet flies, and nymphs that will work
ANYWHERE. It also unveils the mysteries of the unique and universally
effective big New Zealand lures.
About the Author: Hugh McDowell has been one of New Zealand's best-known and most respected fishing guides for over twenty-five years. He's an extremely entertaining writer and this book reflects his unquenchable sense of humor. Little wonder New Zealand Fly Tying has become New Zealand's standard reference-book on fly-tying. It is currently a bestseller in the how-to section and is already in its seventh printing. A frequent guest flytyer at the Federation of Flyfishers' shows, Hugh's work is featured in many books including Patterns of the Masters and The Art of the Trout Fly. Framed samples of his flies are eagerly sought after by collectors worldwide.

Maggie Merriman Fly Fishing Video
Maggie Merriman has been a fishing friend of mine for over 25 years. Now, in conjunction with Fly Fish TV, she's finally gotten around to sharing some of her techniques and knowledge with the angling public via video and DVD. This is an excellent video for the beginning flyfisher and I heartily recommend it.
