EPHEMERIDAE - Emerger Cripple Stillborn Nymph
Patterns of nymphs, cripples, stillborn flies, and emerger. Photographic steps of 42 models. Pictures of 53 insects. 28 tying methods.
Description:... The previous book of the Superfly series “Mayflies on their honeymoon” proposed imitations of subimagos, imagos and spents of Ephemera which leave the surface of the water to live very briefly in the air.
The present work deals with the same insects, but considering them from the surface to the depths of rivers and streams: emergers, cripples, stillborn, surface nymphs and immature nymphs are analyzed and proposed here in their various manifestations. We will sneak into the fight between fish and insects, accomplices of the latter, exercising our role as primary predators with the strict rules of a refined and chivalrous fishing technique.
Each model is presented with construction phases and high resolution photographs, enriched by macro photos of the imitated insects.
