Fly Patterns for Stillwaters: A Study of Trout, Entomology and Tying by Philip Rowley

Phil Rowley uncovers the riches lakes have to offer the patient angler. Phil has spent countless hours at lakes studying the food sources that make up the diet of trout; then set up home aquariums to more closely observe the movement, development, and emergence of the aquatic insects.
