Inhaltsverzeichnis Introduction A brief synopsis of what the reader can expect to accomplish by purchasing “Synthetic Synergism”, including why tiers of all levels and all regions can benefit from it.Part I NymphsChapter OneMinute midge – A midge pattern created to be fast, efficient and of course productive. Basic rotary vise skills will be applied and lead into more complicated patterns.Chapter Two Lint Bug – A fly that has been the favorite of many anglers throughout the country. Learn how to tie the fly that started as a pocket lint request.Chapter Three Marabare – The Marabare is a guide fly, meaning it can be quickly tied and fished in a variety of situations. Combines the techniques and materials used in the minute midge and lint bug even while adding another level of sophistication by incorporating a trailing shuck. The new tungsten anodized beads give it a fresh look and a quicker descent.Chapter Four VW Emerger – This fly combines synthetics to create a midge/baetis that has been sold by the thousands.Chapter Five Madison pupa – Named after my daughter and the river, this fly will incorporate the use of eyes for additional weight and allow tiers to add a new technique to their belt.Chapter Six C-Squared – The cased caddis can be viewed as a free-living caddis from the bottom or a caddis still in its case from the top, allowing it to cover several species at once. Another technique is implemented here with the addition of collars and full wing cases.Chapter Seven T.N.T. – Caddis pupa are an important part of any tiers arsenal and this one has been a staple in fly boxes for decades. This “dynamite” fly can flat-out get it done under the most difficult conditions by fishing it deep along the bottom or just under the surface and anywhere in between.Chapter Eight Ginger Snap – Created to represent the sulphurs of the east and the PMDs of the west, the addition of a dry fly hackle on a nymph makes the collar remain stiff under water, producing a trail of tiny air bubble as it makes its way through the water. Teaching tiers how to create flies with alternative materials and think outside the bubble. Chapter Nine Little Green Machine – This fly has gained a place in fly boxes from coast to coast by producing in all situations, from still water to rivers and streams. More underlayment techniques are demonstrated to the tier to show the translucent properties of the micro tubing.Chapter Ten Big Thompson Special – A solid pattern that can be fished for caddis, stoneflies, and mayflies alike. This pattern is a quick version of the infamous Copper John that takes one quarter of the time to tie and remains just as effective.Chapter Eleven Microstone – If I could only carry one stone fly, this is the one. The first of its kind to incorporate midge tubing for an abdomen, throw on a wire rib and a wing case coated with UV knot sense and you have a stone fly designed to ride upside down to avoid snagging and more positive hook sets.
