Rick,
You are right. I believe the second book was Sunfishes II, can't put my hands on that copy right now. I have talked to Jack on the phone years ago, he used to come to the Conclave in Mt. Home. Speaking of coming to the Conclave years ago, I have been trying to contact Joe Messenger. He used to do the Conclave too. He is from West Virginia, anyone in that area know him. He now guides for a flyshop back there I am told. Joe ties the Messanger Frog like his dad used to tie. It has been 9 years since I had contact with him. I would like to get in touch with him again. I have tied at the shows back east with him.

I think the book I am trying to think of is "Sunfishes" There ar vol 1 & 2. Just can't think of the author's name. I will have to check out my books for that.

Use your library!  Check out the books and see if you like them.

Randall Kaufmann's dry fly and nymph books are my recommendation for beginners targeting trout.

I also love "The Fly Tier's Benchside Reference" by Ted Leeson, Jim Schollmeyer. This book is loaded with methods of tying flies.

Folks: I mentioned having bought the book "Bluegill....Fly Fishing and Flies" by Terry and Roxanne Wilson... Is this a good beginner book, or should I go get a "Flyfishing for Dummies" or some other book as a basic Fly Fishing/tying book???? or CD's, VHS Tapes???? Thanks in advance.... Chuck
