Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Tom Rosenbauer has been a fly fisher for nearly five decades, and was tying flies commercially at age fourteen. He is the author of numerous books, as well as countless articles for American Angler, Outdoor Life, Field & Stream, Fly Fisherman, Fly Rod & Reel, Audubon, and other periodicals. He is a marketing manager at the Orvis Company in Manchester, Vermont, and is the host of the popular podcast The Orvis Fly-Fishing Guide Podcast, which has well over 10 million downloads to date. He is also the host of the TV show The Orvis Guide to Fly Fishing and is a guest host on The new Fly Fisher TV show.

Tom was named Fly Rod & Reel Magazine's Angler of the Year for 2011 and is known for his easy, engaging style and humility. He is popular for taking the arcane language of fly fishing and turning it into commonsense, succinct lessons. He lives on a trout stream in southern Vermont but fishes throughout North America on a regular basis. He has been to a number of exotic locations from Kamchatka to Patagonia but is just as happy fishing for trout, bass, carp, and pike in the United States and Canada, enjoying the wealth of public waters available to us.

Tom does not write about it much, but he is a passionate and experienced saltwater fly rod angler. His favorites are bonefish, tarpon, striped bass, false albacore, and "any other member of the tuna family "from mackerel on up". He thinks permit are overrated.

This text is an easy read, detailed, insightful, and a great stating point for a beginner in fly tying (like me). The photographs are very clear, close enough to see fine detail, and frequent enough that you do not feel like you are left to guess at a missing "middle step," as often happens in such formats. Tom Rosenbauer's writing is, as always, easy to follow, conversational, and entertaining. The selected flies are a great starting point and appear selected to introduce key points that will be essential in future tying projects.

I liked this book son much, I gave the original to a friend and bought another. Gives you specific techniques and only focuses on just 8 flies in great detail. I have several books on tying. This is one of my favorites. Eight basic but deadly flies!
