|
| In the 1978 Third Edition of Tying and Fishing the Fuzzy Nymphs
|
| by Polly Rosborough, Polly's introduction explains this
|
| edition's biggest change is the addition of latin names for the
|
| imitated insects.
|
|
|
| This one, the Isonychia Velma--or the Great Western Leadwing--is
|
| the first of an impressive collection of Polly Rosborough
|
| flies made available by the generosity of Skip Hosfield.
|
| There are 70 or more flies in Skip's Polly Rosborough
|
| collection. It will take several weeks to photograph them
|
| all.
|
|
|
| Skip also lent me a half a dozen new examples of his impressive
|
| Atlantic Salmon Fly project. So look for the Skip Hosfield
|
| collection to blossum soon too. Thank you Skip.
|
| This is an amazing collection.
