Don't be confused by the title. The nymphs detailed here are not just for competition events and are deadly fished with any method like a dry dropper or indicator rig. And they're not all European, as many of them are from North American anglers. They're proven patterns for fishing anywhere in the world, with whatever method you wish. Tim has done a terrific service to the fishing and tying world with this book.
