Mike Leighton's book was the first to attempt to catalogue the trout flies of this region, and was well and comprehensively researched. It is now scarce and quite expensive. Fortunately all of the fly patterns (plus many more) are described and illustrated in a new book, Flyfishing The Welsh Borderlands by Roger Smith.
