The new book cover describes it really well.

It's not just a second print. It is indeed totally revised with new additional materials that created quite an extension from my humble first self-published USA edition. Overall book quality = photo printing, colors, paper, etc. = is also quite improved.

All thanks to one of the most reputable publishers in the world regarding fly-fishing (and somewhat my effort!!)

My first edition and its promotion were quite successful, considering it was all one-man gig. I believed in my contents that would be worth sharing for much wider audience worldwide. It is quite an honor and achievement that my salmon flies and the compilation of them have been accepted in the origin of Atlantic salmon flies. I sincerely hope this book of mine will help fly dressers , aspiring to experienced, study and dress ever-challenging Major Traherne patterns.

Over a Dozen of New Flies!!

Announcing The Special Deluxe Edition

The special deluxe edition consists of a copy of my book, a folding frame with one of Major Traherne flies, and a custom made leather book case that accommodate both.

This time, it's a subscription style, so to speak. I made one as the order comes in. Plus, prices vary by the fly patterns of choice and the purchase options (described below). Hence, I can't set up in my online store but we go with the direct communication.

Please go through the YouTube video above as well!!

Purchase Options:

1. A whole set = a copy of the book, a frame with your choice of fly, and a leather case.

2. A frame with your choice of fly and a leather case. This option is for people who have already purchased books from Coch-y-Bonddu Books.

3. A fly only. Framed or Unframed (same price but the shipping is more for the frame). Upon request, I do consider dressing new or different patterns from the list on the right.

*Shipping cost varies by the destination. Please contact me.
