Hi Guys, found some of 'em in an older edition of "Flies of the Northwest" (1981) by 
the Inland Empire Fly Fishing Club. They have published two
editions since this one and improved every time, one of my favourites. Another one I 
used is by Tom Light & Neal Humphrey the "Steelhead Fly Tying
Manual." (No Date) The original tying technique used to make the "Tom's Bubble" caught 
my eye in this one. Also "Perrault's Standard Dictionary of
Fishing Flies," (1984) by Keith Perrault, I believe it's still the largest repository 
of pattern info, (16,000 patterns) I've found nothing else
that comes close. It was to be revised in a second edition that was due out in 1996 
but I have never seen it. When he does I hope he improves on
the type setting.

Wood Pussy?
Calm days eh
