Dave Brandt's volume of a new set of 4 by Catskill masters, and 2., one by Royce Dam which he was selling at the Sowbug when we were there. Both approaches work....yet they are fastly different. One is pure Catskill style, the other is a western approach. All the information you'll ever need is out there, you just gotta hunt it out. If you need help getting the Catskill videos, i can help. The other three in the "set" are, wets by Ralph Graves; streamers by Burt Darrow (our new president at the CFFC&M); and nymphs by Floyd Frankie.
