Fly Design Rant and Book Recommendations

I see a lot of new patterns being tied on youtube that were obviously put together with unsuitable materials that might catch fishermen, but not necessarily fish. The main example is CDC feathers. In this video I talk about their best uses, and offer some reading suggestions to help those wanting to design their own patterns. Get through my rant to learn about great books on fly tying.

Thanks again Chris. Excellent recommendations. I'm very familiar with Whitlock and Borger, Lafontane too. I know some of Polly's work and Harrop too. I've read some of each of their articles and some day I hope to get the books.
