For anyone who ha ordered the Benchside Ref / magazine combo

[Crotalus]

from Amato Books

I was just curious how long it takes for the book and first issue to arrive?


Thanks
Joe

I ordered it about a year ago, and I remember it really not taking long... within 4 weeks for the book to arrive, then whenever the next issue came out (it's published, I think, every 2 months).

Not sure what the deal is now, but I'll have to say it's one of the best buys I've ever had relating to flyfishing (5 years and free book for $99). It's a great reference book, as well as my favorite FF magazine.

I ordered off of a TV ad that came on during one of the flyfishing shows. The Benchside Reference showed up about two weeks later. The book itself is without a doubt one of the best books written about fly tying. You see it in fly shops all over for $100.00+

I also enjoy the magazine a lot. I would highly recommend this.

Which magazine is it?

Magazine is the Fly Fishing and Tying Journal,
I got the 5yr and Book deal and even converted to Canadian $$
( or Beaver pelts) it is good value.
Book came in a week or so and the Mag when issued.
Good magazine too, nice mix of destinations, techniques and Patterns.

Cheers
Duff

Where does one order this?

[Rick Z]

Order this about 3 weeks ago. The Book in about 8 days and the first issue of the magazine today.

Slowly making my way thru the book. To many times I have to stop to try what they are describing.

I have read the first 115 pages in two weeks. I usually read much faster than this.
