    Default Tying Woolly Buggers

    Being fairly new to fly tying and have been intrigued by the all the possibilities with the wooly bugger, I picked up the book "Woolly Wisdom", and man this is a terrific book. I'd highly recommend this to any new tyers, like myself, who like to tie wooly buggers and all the variations you can do with them, one of my favorite flies to use.

    Mike,

    I picked that up last year when it came out and it is a fantastic book on buggers and woolly worms! If you ever want to tie something and just cannot get into the mood or do not know what to tie, just pick up the book and start looking through it and you will see something that will put you into the mood! Great book...

    Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.

    Hmmmm who is the author/compiler of that book? Someone asked me a few years ago for woolly buggers for a book, and I never heard from him again.

    yes, that's the one. picked it up from Amazon used for about $9 and in excellent condition.

    I'm browsing through it as I type here it's a real "page turner" ... as they say.
