Barr Flies. "How to tie and fish the Copper John and the Barr emerger and dozens
of other patterns variations and rigs".
John S. Barr
Stackpole Books. 172 pgs.
I wasn't actually looking forward to yet another pattern book, but
this one has some interesting and fish proven patterns. Truth be
told, this is merely a showcase of Umpqua and Wapsi fly tying
materials which makes it an insincere and unimportant work.

Very Special!
Trout Fishing in the Catskills
Ed Van Putt
Skyhorse Publishing. 438 pgs.
It's not over yet, but this is my pick for "Book of the Year" in 2007. The research and
photography alone are worth the price. This is one of those quality productions. Every
generation blames the other for the devastation of our brook trout streams. Here is the
true story. This is very entertaining and comprehensive history that covers every stream
in the Catskills. Outstanding book. This has collector written all over it and it's going to
go fast.
We are fortunate to have autographed copies of this one!
$60.00 and worth every penny

Unnnaturals (a practical guide to tying with synthetics).
David Klausmeyer.
The Countryman Press. 151 pgs.
If you've been keeping up with the new synthetic materials then there may not be much
new here. If you haven't been keeping up, this will bring you up to date in a hurry. I also
consider this one a quality book and a fine edition to your fly fishing library. You will
learn something here.
$40.00 for an autographed copy. While they last!
