People who looked at the above also looked at: S&L's Lost Flies Dick Stewart and Bob Leeman's book "Trolling Flies for Trout and Salmon" has inspired fly tyers for the 24 years since it's publication in 1982.

Inside, I found a treasure of patterns and some fishing instructions and I suddenly switched gears and began fishing these great little flies. May 28th 2006 Tabou Daddy Steve Schweitzer is at it again. He just can't stay away from those chick-a-bou feathers. Maybe it's because chick-a-bou is so versatile and incredibly buggy looking. After tying up four variations of a crawdad pattern, he finally found what worked best. See what he caught on his latest addition to the Tabou Series of flies and December 26th 2008
