Media Reviews
This book has been long awaited. Barry is a talented photographer and each of the flies is clearly illustrated in a step by step format. However, the most innovative aspect of this volume is that they all have a QR code and by simply scanning this with your phone, you have the video of the fly being tied by Barry. This is the first book that links print and digital media in this way.
* Flydresser magazine *Barry is the consummate flytyer, possibly the best that I have been fortunate to have encountered over my years of tying. His style of fly-tying is unique, and he produces what is close to, in my opinion, the perfect fly. This work is unique in that it shows a large number of techniques on over thrirty fly patterns that are not only easy to follow, but also video-linked via YouTube to the author tying every featured fly in this book. It’s simply awesome. Bound to be a true modern classic.
* Freshwater Fishing *Barry’s most innovative book to date. I struggle to label this book as one for beginners or one for experts: I see it as a book for every flytyer, at every level.
