Fly Fishing and Fly Tying 

You can read all you want about Czech nymphing, but seeing it in action is so helpful. The underwater shots are incredible. The tying sequences deftly illustrate the techniques and flies shown in the book - and especially how some of those new materials (such as body quill) are used. A lot has been made recently of split thread techniques, and right out of the shoot in the first chapter you get to see CDC barbs wound between strands of thread and twisted to form a loose hackle for a beadhead nymph. You should see how Jaromír applies hare's ear dubbing. I really enjoyed this DVD.
