“When a guy named Dick Brown approached me in 1993 to contribute to a project he was working on, I thought about it for awhile and decided ‘why not?’ Most of the patterns I was using at the time weren't the typical fodder of the day, so I showed my hand. Today, 18 years later, with the publication of the new edition of Bonefish Fly Patterns, I feel honored to have been a small part in an unprecedented effort that is as important and pertinent now, as the day it was published.”—Tim Borski, innovative artist, expert angler, and superlative flats fly designer “The most highly charged moment in fishing is anticipating the take or refusal of a bonefish fly. Brown’s new book teaches you how to assure the “take” in this modern, clearly written treasure of fly construction, selection, and usage. I intend to devour it as avidly as I’d want a double digit bonefish to devour my fly.” —Vic Gaspeny, veteran Florida Keys flats guide and IGFA fly-rod bonefish record holder (14lb 6oz bonefish) “It’s more than just another fly tying book; it’s more like a grad course on bonefishing and the flies that make it work. For my money and yours, if you were to buy only one fly tying book this year, it would be Bonefish Fly Patterns.” —Ed Maurer, Florida Fly Fishing Magazine
