FT. MYERS, FLORIDA (September 24, 2012) "A frustration of mine is trying to learn a new pattern or tying technique without clear illustrations or instructions," say Drew Chicone.  I subscribe to all kinds of fly tying magazines and have quite a few fly tying books, and I can’t tell you how many times I wish there was one more photo or I could have zoomed in on a picture.  I think that most of us would appreciate more than 5 or 6 1-inch photos to thoroughly explain how to get from point A to point Z.  That is one of the main reasons for the ultra close up shots and hi res photography, and excessive number of photos used to illuminate the ideas and techniques found in my latest free ebook "Feathers - Tip's, Trick's & Common Mistakes".

"After teaching fly tying for several years, I have come to the realization that feathers cause more confusion and frustration than any other material. For both beginning fly tiers and seasoned pros alike, keeping them secured strait and even on the hook is a onerous chore that can suck the fun right out of fly tying. Keeping shifty saddles from rolling can be very difficult and maddening, but with a little know how, the annoyance can be avoided."
