Summary: All your modern mayfly needs are met here!
Comment: I've had this book for a few weeks now and every time I open it up, I'm blown away again by the entire package. This is one of the most interesting fly tying books I've ever read! The photography is sharp and the instructions are crystal clear.
The book starts off with the normal section on material and tool selection that you'll find in any fly tying book. This book is set apart from the rest because there are high quality photos of various materials organized into color charts for assorted dubbings and other body materials. While Shane Stalcup has invented many of these materials and therefore has an interest in their success, the idea behind each is clearly explained and suggestions are made for use.
The rest of the book is divided into sections for nymphs, dries, spinners, emergers and cripples and each section has plenty of ideas which you've more than likely never seen before. Crystal clear photographs and simple but effective text accompany each fly in the book and color variations which will work on your local hatches are presented for each fly.
I was a big fan of Shane Stalcup's tying before looking over this book, but now that I've seen it, I'm on a new level of appreciation! Aside from that, I've got a lot of new ideas I can apply to patterns I'm developing. To make it short, I consider this book essential because its the most interesting and imaginative pattern book I've ever seen!
