Following the long-awaited release of 'The Klink', Hans van Klinken is coming to England next month. We are hosting an evening in Shropshire that will take you through the journey of his career, and the thorough testing and adaptations that led to his ground-breaking 'Klinkhåmer Special' and its remarkable success. Take the opportunity to meet the internationally acclaimed fly tyer and acquire a rare signed copy of his fascinating and greatly informative new book.

To mark the 40^th anniversary of the fly that changed the world of flyfishing, we are creating a Super Deluxe limited edition of Hans van Klinken’s new book, The Klink.

There will only be 40 copies made.

Please email Merlin Unwin Books for the full specification and details of  how to buy one of these highly-collectable books, each containing two boxed Klinkhamer flies tied by the author himself.

The name Black Bear can be a bit misleading, as many 'Black Bears' are actually dark brown, light brown, or even cinnamon in colour! However the species known as Brown Bears ('Grizzlies') have a pronounced muscular hump on their shoulders, which Black Bears lack, so it is quite easy to identify which type of bear you are looking at.

There is a chapter dedicated to photographing 'Grizzlies' in Wild World.

Tarquin Millington-Drake will be signing copies of his new book, Living with Greys, at Purdey's London office this Thursday.

Tarquin will meet clients and sign books on 13th June from 2-4.30pm
at James Purdey & Sons, Audley House 57 - 58 South Audley Street London, W1K 2ED

His new book celebrates the Grey Partridge through all seasons. Tarquin spent many hours photographing the birds in Gloucestershire and this book is the result of his patience, and the dedication of farm and land owners to bring the Grey Partridge back from a precipitous decline in population.
