Title: Meddelande

Nick: That is exactly why I wanted this particular book.. This ain't on topic of fishing, but related to what you just said... I LOVE (but can't very well at all) playing the guitar... But anybody here who knows, an "F" chord is one of the hardest to make without having dead strings... Then, my late best friend showed me a different way to make it, by going up a cpl frets, and using only two fingers.. It was a TINY bit higher pitched than the standard chord, but to anybody but the most professional ear, Nobody would ever know the difference..I am also left handed, and most, (cept maybe some of Lefty's stuff LOL) books, videos etc are geared towards right handers, so that throws me off a little, but, like you say, if I had 3-4 ways to do the same thing. One would surely work..

It's not the most expensive Christmas present I've gotten in my life... but it certainly qualifies as one of the BEST ones. Amazon gave me a quite big preview inside it so I knew I had a lot to expect from it... but when I actually had it in my hands and could go through it closer, it still totally blew me away. It's an extremely good book. Not a page wasted on fly patterns... only techniques... lots and lots and lots of them. It doesn't just show you one single way to perform <whatever you're looking at> either. Is there an alternative way to do it... then there is a separate step-by-step showing you that too. The price can seem steep for a book, but I guarantee you... when you have looked through it, you will realize that it was a very good investment.   (If fly-tying is a religion... this book will qualify as a bible.)   /Nick       -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] För [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skickat: den 17 december 2005 09:03 Till: vfb@troutnet.com Ämne: [VFB] The Fly Tier's Benchside Reference Folks: Is this book worth the price????
