Reviews

Fishermen in general, and fly fishermen in particular, have a reputation for keeping information fairly close to the vest, no pun intended. Tim, however, is not one of them. Whether at a fly fishing show, a Trout Unlimited presentation, in a YouTube video, or fishing with him on the stream, he's always willing to share what he knows. Hailing from Central Pennsylvania, you get the feeling that fly fishing's in his blood. The experience and information Tim has gained from fishing there and destinations near and far is absolutely invaluable.

Tim Cammisa is a natural and enthusiastic educator. As a sixth-grade math teacher, he knows how to engage a reticent audience and make learning difficult and/or tedious subjects fun. When he turned to making fly-tying tutorials on YouTube, his videos became instant hits that taught new patterns to longtime fly tiers and brought new tiers into the fold. In Fly Tying for Everyone Tim translates the effectiveness of his videos into a written format that is fun and easy to learn from. Its pages will help you tie contemporary patterns which have proven effective from the local brook to hard-fished tailwaters.

Tim Cammisa demonstrates great versatility in his knowledge of fly tying and fly fishing. His many "Trout & Feather" tutorials on YouTube have helped countless fly tiers, both those new to the craft and the experienced. His profession as a teacher enhances his ability to convey his tying and fishing knowledge to anyone. I have had the pleasure of fishing and tying flies with Tim, and his angling skills are equal to his fly tying mastery. Whether your interest in tying flies is casual or intense, I know you will find Fly Tying for Everyone a valuable and most informative asset to your pursuit of the many facets of tying flies.
