Book excerpt: Shane Stalcup approaches fly-tying with the heart and mind of a scientist and an artist. His realistic approach to imitating the mayfly is very popular and effective across the West, and can be applied to waters across North America. Mayflies are the most important insect to trout fishermen, and in this book, Shane shares his secrets for tying effective, lifelike mayfly imitations that will bring fly-anglers more trout. Many tying techniques and materials are discussed for tying nymphs, emergers, adults, spinners, and more. Mayflies: Top to Bottom is useful to beginner and expert tiers interested in tying innovative, realistic flies that are proven fish-catchers. Book jacket.
