Beyond Superb! Non traditional materials are used in many exceptional and realistic patterns. Full explanations are given on how to prepare and use the materials discussed as well as excellent breakdowns of of the flies detailed and how to tie them with good close up photos of the finished product to guide you (and photos from multiple angles where helpful). indications are often given as to what kind of waters the author expects the flies to catch on. There is discussion of different species and which flies might target them, and some discussion of different techniques for different waters. In my opinion this book sets a new benchmark in fly tying literature.
