Chauncy Lively's Flybox - A Portfolio of Modern Trout Flies

Chauncy Lively's Flybox - A Portfolio of Modern Trout Flies by Chauncy Lively

Chauncy K. Lively's reputation has grown steadily since the introduction of his "fly-Tying" column in the Pennsylvania Angler over ten years ago. These are the patterns Lively has gathered into Chauncy Lively's Flybox, selecting over forty of the most effective flies from his years of experimenting and testing. Some patterns, like the Chauncy's March Brown Nymph, will sound familiar to the angler - until he sees the finished fly with its realistic peacock legs! Others, like the Little Black Stonefly, show their originality at first glance. Still others are refreshing approaches to standard patterns, like the Quill Back Beetle and Cricket. All of them have that special inventive use of materials and technique that has made Chauncy Lively "the fly-tier's fly-tier."

Like many of the standard patterns the angler carries today, these ties were born and stream tested on the famous waters of Pennsylvania: the Letort, Penn's Creek, the Kettle. Chauncy Lively's Flybox is by no means a localized collection: There are stonefly, mayfly dun and spinner, nymph, midge, and caddis patterns to match hatches all across trout country. 

Open Chauncy Lively's Flybox and meet one of the cleverest fellows on the stream, and forty of his best patterns - ready to tie and fish!
