...and anyway, 1994 is hardly modern!

Where else can I find out about MODERN fly line design, and the reasons behind the designs?

Thanks,

Quite often there will be an entire set (all 25 odd "little" volumes) on sale - new - on Amazon or the like in the $ 500 to $ 600 range (or there have been recently.)
They would all look really good on your book shelf.

I would like to point out at this point there is one 1996 copy of "A Beginners Guide to Stillwater Trout Angling - including some advanced thinking". Slightly thumbed. Limited edition 1000.

Offers in excess of £2000 please. :cool:
