fly tying CD
Hey folks I have a question for the guru's of this board. I have a spare computer on my fly tying/ reloading bench that I use for my load development and since it's there does anyone know of a good CD of recipe for flys? I figure the fly on the ol' puter screen would be easier to see than in a book. If you folks have any places or recommendations I'd really like to hear them. Thanks,
Kirk
Take a look to the left. See the menu where it says "Fly Tying"? Click on that, and then go the the "Archive". Dozens of illustrated patterns with step-by-step instructions in there. A great website is [url=http://www.troutflies.com:76f58]www.troutflies.com[/url:76f58] if you need more detailed instruction.

They're just fish, right? Right?
Whatever happened to the FOTW cd's that went around a year or 2 ago? I was without a computer for a while, so maybe I just missed something. I tried using the search function, but came up empty.
The Fly Tier's Benchside Reference to Techniques and Dressing Styles (CD-ROM)
It is an awesome cd-rom, i dont own it myself but buddies do and they love it. There is also tons of info on this site and many other. Link below for amazon link to the bechside reference cdrom

The Dick Stewart and Farrow Allen series of books, Flies for Trout, Flies for Bass and Panfish, Flies for Saltwater, etc. are all available on CD. They were done back when something like windows 95 was the standard operating system, so they are not as slick as todays cd's/dvd's in terms of getting around in it, but the pictures are large and reproduced very well, and of course the text and recipes are great. Cheers, Alec

The reason I was looking for a CD is that I don't have the internet on the said computer, I have been all over this site and really like it. I'll be doing some searching when I get home for the references you guys offered. Later,

I gotta give it up to Plain Old Jim for the CD! I haven't loaded it on my puter just yet but I have looked it over and have to say wow.
If anyone has a copy of the FOTW CD I'd be glad to purchase a copy or two. Later and thanks for the help you all have offered this ol' Okie.
