A note from Dave:
The hatch and fly pattern selection concepts in this booklet, Matching Hatches Simplified, are adapted from my books Handbook of Hatches, Essential Trout Flies, and Trout Flies, and from my related slide show Matching Hatches Simplified. My intent with this booklet was to simplify matching hatches….
The booklet starts off with observations on imitations and continues with pertinent information about the naturals – Mayflies, Stoneflies, Caddisflies, and Midges. In each species, I talk about the stages, pattern styles and color themes.
Matching Hatches Simplified does just that … it simplifies what you need to know, when you need to know it. It's an essential guide to hatches and matching patterns.
I’m offering the booklet by itself or the booklet and 18 hand-tied flies that I talk about in the booklet. Tracy Peterson, an expert tier, angler and guide is personally tying each individual set ordered. Click Here to order the booklet and fly set.
Each booklet is personally signed by me.
