Trout Ray Bergman pictures?

Recommended Posts

I'm considering the purchase of the most recent edition of Ray Bergman's "Trout", published in 2000.

I would buy it mainly for the plates of the flies.

 

I'm wondering how good are the photos in this edition?

I know that anything in that book is probably online somewhere but I'm one of those that enjoy a good book in my hands.

 

I'd like to hear from those that have this edition.

 

Thank you

If don't already own a copy of Trout, it's well worth reading as well just looking at the plates.

Flytire,

Thank you!

Knowing that they are paintings and not pictures, is a game changer.

The painting are awesome though.

Thank you for the links to the actual flies!

 

Bob,

Thank you for your recommendation of the book as reading material.

I still may buy it just to read.

I bought this and the one I got had the plates in black and white. Obviously I returned it. Go on EBay lots of second and third editions for around $20.00. I have the 1933 printing right on my desk. The patterns haven't changed much.
