Oliver Edwards, Flytyers Masterclass. A step-by-step guide to tying 20 essential patterns for the flyfisher. Oliver Edwards is a well known British fly tyer, that writes in British magazines, and whose style of tying, describing and drawing will be known by many, especially European flyfishers. Published by Merlin Unwin Books, Ludlow UK, 1994. His style is quite unique in all three cases, although his drawings are even more than remarkably good and his flies are simply 'outta this world'. His hallmark is the ultra-realistic fly. People who haven't seen his flies will not know exactly what can be put into that phrase.

Practical advise and quality color step by step tutorial

Nice flies, but be prepared to put a lot of time in on them. His instructions are right on.

All I can say is Brilliant. I have been tying for over half my life and still love learning! Oliver produces not only beatiful, but extremely effective creations. Its a pity there are only 20 patterns! I would encourage any tyer to have a go at these patterns and produce tight lines !

This contains instructions for tying some of the most realistic insect imitations there are. It features some unusual tying techniques.

While the patterns in this book are oriented towards the British fly fisher, most if not all of of patterns in this book are suitable for American waters as well. His Ephemerella is useful just about anywhere, his Large Stonefly is a nice take on a classic on both continents, and his Foam and Hair Beetle should be great for warm waters as well as spring fed streams. Ditto the Freshwater Shrimp pattern. What really makes this book tremendously useful are the drawings, which are perhaps the best illustrations of tying technique seen in any fly tying book. I suspect even the most experienced tiers will learn a lot from Edward's patterns and techniques found in this book. Unfortunately, it's been out of print in this country for over a decade; I found mine at a remainder sale around then. But you still may find a reasonably priced copy in a used book store.

Mr. Edwards little guide was recommended to me by the good folks at the Los Pinos fly shop in Albuquerque. I am grateful.
This book shows how to tie very effective and substantially more representative flies & nymphs with about as much time at the vise as the common dressings require.
The best thing about the dressings and their descriptions is that any tier can master the techniques due to their clarity of illustration and step-by-step instructions in the text.
I finally have a "killing" Rhyacophila (green caddis) larva that I can lose to rocks and other debris (fished correctly, this will always happen)without regret. I can tie 20 of these in an hour and the hook costs more than the dressing!
E. H. (Polly) Rosborough's pioneering work is clear in this dressing.
There are twenty different dressings included in the Masterclass and dozens of clear illustrations penned by Mr. John Roberts. A first class addition to any library.

This is still a good resource and was a great one when it was published.

As a life long fly fisher, I really have to hand it to Oliver Edwards respecting his first book on the subject of fly tying. Mr. Edwards is a professional fly tier and is a regular contributor in several British periodicals and web sites focusing on fly-fishing. The stories are noteworthy regarding how he came to develop the patterns in his book. He is very through in his description of each pattern including well-drawn step by step instruction. I also have been tying flies since I was a child and find his wit and experience a benefit. In his words, "90% of the fish are caught by 10% of the fishermen". His book will help you to be in the top 10%.
