5.0 out of 5 stars
Terrific book for the serious Atlantic salmon fisher!,
By John Preston (jnp@valley.net) (Meriden, NH) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Modern Atlantic Salmon Flies (Paperback)
This is definitely not just another rehash of the 'standard' flies described in so many books. These flies are those usually available only palm-to-palm at the edge of the river, or at the tailgate after a day's fishing. Fly photographs are excellent, with great descriptive and background text. This is a rare opportunity to peruse the flyboxes of Eastern Canada's most skilled tyers and fishermen. A nice bonus is the inclusion of contact information for all the contributing tyers. Kudos, Paul- a great piece of work!
