Tom, Elegant dressing. It made me think about rereading the book. It's the second book that Donald Nicholson told me about (the first being Modern Trout Fly Dressing by Roger Woolley.) Donald insisted I go to Coch-y-Bonddu Books web site and buy it immediately. Apparenty, some bookstore had found a case of them, unopened. Since they were new, unsold books, they had to sell them for the original price, 9 Pounds 50. They sold out quickly, but I got my copy. The next day the used ones were still selling for close to $100.
I think I may have to add that fly to my box as well. Thanks for dredging up a fond memory of an old friend.
