Masterclass Baetis Nymph

3 comments

Oliver Edwards Ties his Masterclass Baetis Nymph. Master of the art of fly tying, Oliver Edwards shows the tying of his Baetis nymph step by step with multiple camera angles; even beginners can follow this tie. This pattern was first shown in his book Fly Tyers Masterclass. #flytying #flyfishing #troutfishing #trout #flyfishingtrout #flytying #dryflyfishing #flytyingforbeginners

Mr. Edwards taught me how to tie flies

I was the only one in my small village who tied flies, so it was with the step-by-step tying instructions he published in an English magazine and later, thanks to VHS videos, that I learned many techniques for tying trout flies. A master for me.

He inspired a lot of people

Serge,

Oliver did inspire a lot of people - you obviously ... and me too. I met him several times, and always learned a lot from him, and like you I swallowed his videos (VHS and DVD's) and stil love his book Flytyers Masterclass.

A true fly tying legend.

I’ll never have the chance to meet him

I agree with you, Martin. Unfortunately, I'll never have the chance to meet him… I carefully preserve some magazines, a signed copy of Flytyer's Masterclass, and some fly-tying products under his name, sold by Partridge few years ago.

Since you got this far …

A money box
The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
