Description

Wet Flies : 2nd Edition – Tying and Fishing Soft Hackles, Winged and Wingless Wets, and Fuzzy Nymphs is a bit of a mouthful for a title of a book. But that it because it packs so much into the pages. Wet Flies : 2nd Edition begins with comparisons between subsurface flies and the insects they resemble. Complete materials lists and step-by-step instructions for tying soft-hackled flies, wingless wets, traditional winged wets, and fuzzy nymphs are included.
