Keith Fulsher grew up in north-central Wisconsin, where his father and uncle introduced him to fly fishing for wild brook trout. He lives in Eastchester, New York. Dave Klausmeyer is the author of Guide Flies and Tying Classic Freshwater Streamers. He lives in Steuben, Maine.
Keith Fulsher's Thunder Creek series has been catching fish for
more than thirty years. Thunder Creek Flies expands the legacy of
these wonderful patterns. This book is an important addition to any
fly fisher's library and a must-have for anyone interested in
streamer fishing.--Ed Engle, author, Fishing and Tying Small
Flies
The apparently simple design of the Thunder Creek series belies
thoughtful innovation. Fulsher has taken a fresh look at the head
shape, eye placement, oval cross section, and back and belly color
separation of baitfish and incorporated them into his flies. Using
sparse bucktail dressings on hooks especially suited to his
concept, he has produced a family of realistic and production
imitations for trout fishers, and has adapted them to the demands
of bass, salmon, and saltwater fishing. The Thunder Creek family of
flies warrants a serious look from all fly fishers and tiers.--Ed
Jaworowski, author of The Cast and Perfecting the Cast
When Keith Fulsher's Thunder Creek flies first hit the scene in the
early 1970s, they were a revelation to streamer fishermen
everywhere. Those tiers who struggled with matched hackles,
multi-feather wings, and other streamer-tying nightmares finally
had some patterns they could produce without agonizing at the vise.
Fulsher has spent the last three decades perfecting his invention
and increasing its application to all kinds of water and gamefish.
These revised and new Thunder Creek flies are a vital component of
any fly box. Dave Klausmeyer's brilliant photography brings the
flies to life and makes them easy to duplicate.--Phil Monahan,
editor, Orvis News
