Book Synopsis

-- Striking, never-before-published photographs of traditional and neo-traditional flies
-- Step-by-step Instructions from today's master fly tiers
-- How to create accurate imitations of exotic feathers using readily available supplies

This lavishly illustrated book features complete information on classic salmon patterns being tied today. Full-color photographs illuminate detailed step-by-step instructions for tying a variety of flies: the Baron, a married-wing fly; the Regalia, a full-feather fly; a typical Spey fly; and others. Chapters are devoted to the science and practice of dyeing fly-tying materials, hooks and hook-making, and matting and framing flies. A handsome gallery of flies completes this unique book, which features the work of the best salmon fly tiers in North America: Wayne Luallen, Mark Waslick, Bob Veverka, Marvin Nolte, Ted Roubal, Stack Scoville, Eugene Sunday, and Darwin Atkin.
