My two pence worth.... It seems like I am in good company...I let my subscription to Fly Tyer lapse. Haven't missed it. I do occasionally buy a copy...not often.
The only fly tying mag that I subscribe to as of now is Fly Fishing and Fly Tying (this is the UK magazine...not the journal from the states). It has maintained a high degree of quality (compared to many of the other paper-sinks out there). This magazine definitely leans toward the UK styles of fly patterns/techniques, etc. (shocker!)...but it is very interesting and has some great techniques. I have used some of the flies offered in FF&FT over here with varying degrees of success (note - I have also used my flies with varying degrees of success). It is a bit more expensive, but, in my opinion, worth the price. If anyone is interested, check out the website at http://www.flyfishing-and-flytying.co.uk/. Best to all. Chris
