Dave Whitlock presents information about important foods for trout - insects, crustaceans, and bait fish. He covers each organism's life cycle and how it relates to trout feeding, then simple, effective patterns to represent the imporatant life stages. I particularly like the way Dave makes his patterns a good mix of realisim with impressionistic simplicity. Excellent book for both beginning and experienced tyers.
