From Library Journal
Salmon flies are the traditional flies used to fish for Atlantic salmon, one of fly-fishing's most prized game fishes. Tying these flies is regarded as the most artistic aspect of the craft of fly-tying. This new edition of Salmon Flies takes the place of its own first edition as the finest work on the subjectAblack-and-white photos have been replaced by color, and the text has been updated to include new tools and techniques. The section on materials and the glossary of the parts of a salmon fly are alone worth the cost of the book, which is a bargain. Directions for 18 patterns are fully illustrated with photos, along with instructions for another 169. In addition, the book is attractively typeset, well organized, and well suited to fly tiers who want to learn these beautiful patterns. Highly recommended for any library collecting fly-fishing titles.AJeff Grossman, Milwaukee Area Technical Coll. Lib., Oak Creek
