The Fisherman's Handbook to Trout Flies by Donald Dubois

[WildTigerTrout]

I just picked up a copy of " The Fisherman's Handbook to Trout Flies" by Donald Dubois. It is an older book( Copyright 1960, third printing May 1964) but the information it contains seems like it would be useful today even though it's over fifty years old. It contains 5939 patterns to both wet and dry flies! Seems like a good reference book. Anybody else have a copy? Any comments?

I do have a copy and have used it for trying out some new fly patterns. Some with success and some not. There was a lot of research that went into writing that book.
