When I was Volunteering at the Senior Center today, someone gave me this book; Rubber Legs and White Tail Hairs, Author Patrick F. McManus. Here are a couple of Quotes by him.
FLY TYING BOOKS
"The other problem with Fly Tying books is that the author has deliberately designed each fly so that it will contain ONE material that the fly-tyer doesn't have on hand. This requires the tyer to drive forty miles around town looking for a Shop that hasn't sold the last of the material to some Guy who came in fifteen minutes before the tyer arrived."

Toilet Tissue (Duck Hunting)
"It is a well-known scientific fact that a hunter scurrying out of a blind with a roll of toilet tissue in hand will bring in every duck within a ten-mile radius. The trick here is to have a second gun concealed some distance from the blind."
