Description: This is a rare opportunity to own a personalized, signed copy of Fishy's Flies, a vintage trade paperback book by Jay "Fishy" Fullum. The book is personalized and sold by the author himself and contains 96 pages of fly tying advice with beautiful illustrations by the author. These are from a final set of copies held by the author and his family and we're ready to have Fishy himself add a note before we pack up your copy and ship it out. This item is a must-have for any outdoors enthusiast who is interested in fly tying and fly fishing. Organized into terrestrials, dry flies, bass flies, nymphs, poppers, and saltwater creations, this guide takes you through the journey of creating time-tested flies, often using strange and fun materials you already have around the house. This thoughtful collection of flies and anectodes about fishing with them is a perfect tool for both the experienced tier and someone new to the craft. With clear illustrated steps, lists of required materials, and suggestions for how to fish with each fly, anyone can pick up this peaceful craft and enjoy a fruitful day on the waters. Fishy's career began with illustrative design and environmental conservation work, morphing into traveling the nation attending fly fishing shows and teaching classes from children to disabled veterans. During the pandemic he shifted his focus to painting all sorts of nature scenes (and the occasional alien) in both acrylic and watercolor. Now fully retired, he still paints daily and makes time to teach his grandkids and little great-grandbabies to enjoy the waters and remember that as long as you're having fun, that's all that matters. Dozens of paintings also available for sale, enquire with any details about what sort of size, scenery, and colors you're looking for and we likely have one to match at a very agreeable price.
