A compilation of 24 gamebird and wildfowl articles from 66 previous issues of Fish & Game New Zealand magazine. Many of the articles are of interest to those who tie their own flies especially about hunting pheasants, chukar, quail and pukeko. This is very much a "how-to" book full with valuable information useful to novice and expert alike.

Contributors include: Brad Parkes, Bob South, Ross Millichamp, David Moate, Graeme Hughes, Zane Mirfin, Alan Hammond, Rob McLay, Garry Ottman, Keith Draper, Blake Abernethy, Scott Kunac, John Fraser, Murray Williams, Clare Veltman and Henrik Moller.

Though strictly speaking a book about hunting it has been included here because it contains interesting information about some of the birds whose feathers are used for fly tying.
