Jimmy,
I have had the book for over 12 years. It is a real reference book. I
used to post patterns from it on the old Flytie list.

This one is choice! Can you imagine a book with 16,000 fly patterns?
Well, I got one - bought it through Byard. Title is Perrault's
Standard Dictionary of Fishing Flies - Kepcor Books, Daniels
Publishing Co, Orlando, FL 1st & only edition - 1984. The book is
sectioned as follows: Trout Flies - wet and dry, Nymphs, Streamers and
Bucktails, Terrestrials, Atlantic Salmon Flies, Lake Flies, Steelhead
and Pacific Salmon Flies, Salt Water Flies, Material Suppliers, World
Wide Fly Tiers. You name it, this book has it. Only drawback is
cost. I paid $50 + for it through Byard, brand new, still in shrink
wrap cover. I think the copy I got was the only one Byard had. The
book is out of print, but there are several copies available at the
link below. Price ranges from $20.60 to $72.85, depending on condition.
