I like to browse the Gutenberg Project's list of free online books. They are usually old and out of date but some are still useful and valuable resources. I ran across this one Blacker's, Art of Fly Making, & c., by William Blacker. The illustrations are wonderful. I've never tied a fly but it has always looked fascinating
...any fly tiers out there?
