Hello to my fellow ULFF fanatics. I often say how I mostly fish small streams. Well it just dawned on my senile mind that a couple of my books are read over and over and I hope you will discover them too. The first is Tying & Fishing Soft-Hackled Nymphs by Allen McGee (Frank Amato, 2007). Besides a vast number of soft hackle patterns described, there is history and stream techniques galore. I just keep rereading this volume and learning something new each time. It's a paperback and very affordable. The second book is Small-Stream Fly Fishing by Jeff Morgan. Many of you are probably familiar with this volume. While he does occasionally use a 4 wt, the info is sound and the photos are great. Both available on Amazon Books. :applause

I also highly recommend McGee's book. IMHO, it's the best book on fishing soft hackles and flymphs (there aren't that many books on this topic to begin with). Wet Flies by Dave Hughes is another good one.
