The Art of Tying the Bass Fly ...  Skip Morris 
This book is very good at showing the packing in step by step pictures.
It comes in a spiral version, always my favorite for tying because it lays
flat on your bench.

Technically, Deb is correct.  The tiger mouse is a stack-'n-pak.  I have a
method for spots, but that is a secret.
I refer to both spinning deer and stacking deer as 'flaring, because more
materials than deer will flare, even a lot of synthetics.

The entire mouse pattern is in the 1995 Patterns of the Masters, from the
Livingston FFF 'clave.
Should I have Byard post it on the vfb?
