Very nice find Normand, thank you.
While I have a few cherished personal memento’s from a few of those gentlemen. I’d gladly give them up to spend another afternoon in that little trailer in Chiloquin or to once more take a knee alongside Cal’s vise.

Wasn’t that just a moment ago?

Thanks! Great site.

Poly Rosborough’s book Tying Fuzzy Nymphs was one of my best resoures in tying as a kid
growing up in Michigan. We hunted and all our friends hunted and his book taught me how to make that fur usable.

Just last night I used his fur noodle method to tie up some scuds for an upcoming trip to Arkansas

My Fly Fishing and Fly Tying Journal from Frank Amato Publications needed to be renewed. I received an insert with the renewal that if I sign up for one year I get one free book. So this book was on the list and I selected it for my free book. I will let all know how the book is when I receive it.

i have pollys book also and now with the fotos on the site i linked, i can copy them into a word document then type out the recipe from the book and save it to my external hard drive.

I obviously missed something, Fontinalis, what is the book? Please?
