Tying Classic Freshwater Streamers

An Illustrated Step-by-Step Guide

David Klausmeyer


Tying Classic Freshwater Streamers is the first book to show you in detailed step-by-step photos and complete instructions how to tie such patterns as the Gray Ghost, Lady Doctor, and Chief Needahbah. Klausmeyer explains how to make durable tandem-hook rigs for tying classic trolling streamers and how to tie marabou- and hair-wing streamers. This important book also features complete instructions for dressing modern fish-catching “classics” such as the Muddler Minnow and Thunder Creek series.

Tying Classic Freshwater Streamers includes a comprehensive discussion of material selection and photos of additional flies—with recipes—dressed by some of the best tiers in the country. Klausmeyer is well known for his finely detailed and stunningly beautiful fly photography. Here he features more than 230 exquisite photographs.

David Klausmeyer is the editor of Fly Tyer magazine, and is the author of Guide Flies, Tying Contemporary Saltwater Flies, and Trout Streams of Northern New England. He lives in Steuben, Maine.
