I brought in the package that was addressed to my son and gave it to him and he said it was really for me and that it's from him and my wife. So I opened it up and it's a fantastic book called, The History of Fly - Fishing in Fifty Flies, by Ian Whitelaw.

I took a quick look through it and knew instantly this is going to be a great read and tutorial for tying flies because along with each fly it has the original tying recipe and also when and where the fly was first tied and by who created it.

My wife says there's one more book coming and I can only hope it's Ray Bergman's, Trout. But she won't tell me.
Just thought I'd share this with you because I think it's pretty cool because I like the history of fly fishing and tying and fishing with classic flies.
