I concur. I recently purchased Essential
Skills DVD with 2 videos on one DVD
1) Czech
Nymphing
2) Upstream
nymphing and north country spiders.
Covers fly tying, reading the water,
tackle, especially leaders and tactics.
Highly recommended!

Videos, question
Murf,
I have really enjoyed Oliver Edwards' DVDs. There are several - none are
cheap. He does a great job (in my opinion) in explaining WHY he does
things, as well as HOW. The production quality is fantastic (each fly
shot from several angles, professional quality sound, etc.). Each DVD has
a section on how to fish the pattern(s)...so you can see Oliver fishing as
well.

Byard, forgive me, I'm going to have a purely fly tying related post!
Regarding fly tying videos (or books, web sites), preferably DVDs, I ask the
many opinions of my fellow VFBers as to those they are most impressed with or
those which have been most helpful. I am mostly intested in those which
reveal techniques, alternative methods, shortcuts, unusual or specialty
techniques/methods. Here is my meager library, less the coffee table
books, of what hasn't been lent out for perpetuity;
- Fly Tying, The Angler's Art, with Dave
Engerbreston and LeRoy Hyatt (1-4)
- Tying Western Trout Flies, Jack Dennis
- Tying and Fishing Attractors, Gary LaFontaine
- My Favorite Fishing Flies, Poul Jorgensen
- Fly Tying Basics, Jack Dennis (going to a
deserving young tyer)
- Fly Tiers Benchside Reference (book) by Leeson
& Schollmeyer
- Hatches II (book) by Caucci & Nastasi
As you can see, my film library is almost bare and lacking many worthy
videos. What videos do you consider impressive to you? Thanks in
advance to all.
