Mauro Raspini has concentrated in The Fly Sacro e Profano one hundred and five dressing of artificial flies designed to cover all the needs that the angler, if his aim is to catch some fish with artificial flies, could be found along the banks of the rivers. In them nothing is due to chance or the whim of the moment.
These dressing, illustrated by high-resolution photographic sequences, represent the evolution of the artificial of the classical world, updated with modern fly tying methods and materials, and where this was considered possible, improvements.
If this work presents evolutionary models, in the book The Fly La genesi of the same author Mauro Raspini, you will find the most complete compendium available today of the models of the classical world. Although they can be purchased separately, the two volumes that come out simultaneously are an integral part of each other.
