Pete: I’m with ya. And 4 of my 5 grand DAUGHTERS love to fly fish, even the “baby” at 2 ½ yrs old) has given it a try, and 2 out of my five grand DAUGHTERS (aged 13 and 15) have just started tying as well and love to fly TIE. It’s NOT a “Mans” sport anymore. From the books I’ve read and videos I’ve seen it never as, but you just didn’t hear/read about it as much. My 13 yr old grand daughters favorite fly to tie is thee bi-visible which is NOT as easy to tie as it’s looks, but she love mixing the colors . I’m teaching them by the “parts” method which means “OK, lets tie tails and we’ll tie tails of various materials, lengths. Then it’s own to “lets tie bodies”, then “lets tie legs, then thoraxes, then heads. And when w get through the various parts, I’ll let them to tie whole flies of which I’ll post pics of here. So far, their first attempts are betters than my first attempts LOL. Chuck

The pleasure was all ours, Peggy! I greatly appreciate you taking time to speak with my autistic daughter. She's getting into tying, despite her young age, but has been asking me (direct quote "Isn't tying and fishing only for boys?" so I'm thrilled to have had several women speak with her while she was at the show. I don't know if we'll have her join my son and I at the January or March shows (Edison, Lancaster), depends on how she is those days... but we'll see. She thoroughly enjoyed it, though! She wanted me to say thanks to you. Thanks to you both, -Pete On Sun, Dec 1, 2019 at 2:28 PM Neville Gosling <nev.gosl...@gmail.com <mailto:nev.gosl...@gmail.com> > wrote: Hi Pete: I took up and interest in chech nymphs about 10 or more yers ago and have several books on the subject, however I am currently in the UK and will try to remember to send you the list when I return home.

I enjoyed a talk with Jan Siman and got some of his materials, the chapstick looking marker for the tippet and a couple of furled leaders that are colored. I have never liked the indicators, most are to big and remind me of bobbers. It was nice to see you and family at the Symposium, the hall was smaller this year but made for a closer show.

My son is asking me why there's a shortage of books that speak about fly patterns tied in the realm of Czech nymph, Euro nymph, or just jig nymph patterns, and my best guess is because everything these days has gone digital - that is, everything has shifted to instagram, facebook, or YouTube. So with that hunch in mind, I'm reaching out to see if anyone knows of any books that have a wealth of patterns specific to the Czech nymphs, Jig nymphs, and/or Euro nymphing styles. We can always use youtube, sure, but what we're after is a paper book. That said, if you know of a particular tyer or channel on instagram or youtube, or the likes, please let me know so we can check it out - if they deal specifically or mostly with those types of nymphs, please.
