Essential Patterns Volume 2 - Woven Flies

Constructing the bodies of artificial fishing flies has historically always been a question of wrapping various materials around the hook shank. However, there is much more a fly tyer can do with body materials than merely wrapping them around the hook shank. Probably the most dramatic alternative to the traditional method is "Weaving". I don"t understand why it"s not more common, it"s often a deceptively simple tying method. 

This programme is all about woven fly bodies. They look fantastic, and they are great fish catchers. If you don"t believe me, take a look at the images of the patterns I tie in this DVD.
