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. 

Production is underway. We have a very limited number of a Super Deluxe edition of The Klink, a new book by Hans van Klinken on his creation and use of The Klinkhamer, perfected over many years and found in almost every flybox internationally. 

This special edition is bound in quality green leather with a silk ribbon marker, all deluxe copies are handmade by the craftspeople at the Ludlow Bookbinders. The book will be housed in a custom made Solander Box, containing your signed and numbered leather copy of The Klink by Hans van Klinken, and an inlayed box containing two Klinkhamer flies tied by Hans himself. The fly box and book have specially commissioned marbled papers and black Suedel lining. The book and boxes have silver and black blocking and bespoke artwork of a Klinkhamer fly.
