Pros
Great Book for beginers.
Particulrly nice and new format with split pages.
Nice patterns.
Destined to be a classic beginers book.
Cons
For what ever reason there are two sections for each type of pettern. For instance the forst group of dry flies and then in the back a second group of dry flies.
I don't know why they were split up.
