Nymphs (by Schwiebert) Re-write?

FAOL Community Fly Anglers Online

Over a year ago, I read in an article that Ernest Schwiebert was still active, and was in the process of re-writing his classic book, Nymphs.

In the article, Ernie was quoted as saying he “was throwing out the book, and just retaining the title” or something similar.

Since then, I haven’t heard another word on the subject. Would someone who knows him care to comment on the situation?

Got my question answered, so I’ll share it here. Apparently, the book will be called Nymphs II, is scheduled for release October, 2006, and is already listed for pre-order by the major online bookseller.

Mike-

Hatches II was written by Al Caucci and Bob Nastasi, and is another classic. It was first published as Hatches in 1975, and then as a second edition in 1986.
