Spey Flies by Bob Veverka
Bob Veverka, passionate about Spey flies, gives us the history and background on classic Spey, Dee, Don, Eagle, and Steelhead Spey patterns, including step-by-step instructions for tying the Lady Caroline, White-Winged Akroyd Dee, and Orange Heron. The chapter on materials is loaded with insights from decades of tying -- and the descriptions of salmon-fly materials will quickly become a standard reference for all those who tie salmon or steelhead flies. The special challenges of tying Spey and Spey-style flies -- winding the long body hackles, wrapping the collars, mounting the unique wings, finding substitutes for materials no longer available -- are explained and solved. Although the original patterns from the River Spey and River Dee have fathered a large, varied, and ever-growing family, a common theme ties all these flies together. Features: Over 160 patterns, including Akroyd, Ghost, Golden Pheasant Spey, and Steelhead Sunrise; Descriptions and what to look for in hooks, pheasant and marabou feathers, types of wool, and other materials used to tie Spey flies today and in the past; Superb photographs by Michael Radencich of flies tied by legendary tiers Syd Glasso, Walt Johnson, Mark Walkick, and Steve Gobin.| SKU | Nicht verfügbar |
