Thanks for that Peter: The worst thing about fly tying is that there is always something that absolutely we must have, no matter what. When you get it there is always something else!!!!!!! The never ending story. Regards,

I'd have to second that motion - the Benchside Reference is amazing for newbies and oldies alike. Not quite sure where I fit in, except that it is SO helpful at providing a zillion pictures of MULTIPLE ways of doing something. Great buy! I've seen it for 65 or so US$ online, but you have to look for it. If you think of it as 2 books (price- wise) it's worth that and then some! I've only browsed 'Tying Emergers' at the shop but it also looks to be a great book. Again, I don't have it but it's next on my "to purchase" list of books. Of course, finances limit the list's rotation, but it's still on there! I've seen some books on Byard's site, including the Fisherman's Entymological reference (I always mix up the name, so if this is bogus, sorry), which is an AWESOME reference that I keep going back to! I don't know if it's in stock still, but Byard had two of them in the discount/ specials area for quite some time. 55 or so, if my memory serves me correctly, but it's been a while since I looked at them. Which... I think I'll do right now :) Tight wraps, Pete
