Braided Butt Damsel
I had several requests to post the tying instructions for the Braided Butt Damsel—so here they are, straight out of Designing Trout Flies.

TRP Media
"Fly Fishing, the Book Series" is now underway. Begun in 2010 as a collaboration between my Tomorrow River Press company and Jason's FF&W [media], this planned 20-book series will explore a huge range of fly-fishing topics over 5+ years. The books are available signed/personalized via my eBay store. Unsigned copies (at the basic retail price) are available here or from other angling book retailers.
THE SERIES PASS
A special "Series Pass" for all 20 books is also being offered. One million+ words, all focused on fly fishing!
