Book review: Flies as art

Paul Whillock ties some really impressing realistic flies. People who have seen these creations will know why he was once stopped in customs and prohibited from bringing a fly into the US. They thought is was a real bug... Few of the tyers of super-realistic flies reveal their secrets, but this book seems to contain all Paul's tying methods, tips and tricks.

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.
