Summary

This is the first and only book available on the tier whose techniques with epoxy and silicone revolutionised saltwater fly tying. The family of flies Bob Popovics developed over the last three decades (dubbed 'Pop Fleyes', a spelling that incorporates part of his last name with the fact that eyes are a prominent feature in their design) have proven devastatingly effective for stripers, bluefish, false albacore, and many more species. The book goes beyond the basic recipe format to provide the thinking behind Popovics's pattern development, a guide to key tying techniques and detailed notes on how to fish Pop Fleyes most effectively.
