Title: Color photos! a new "Stacked Hair Wing" and PJ wrote it!
Review: Mr. Jorgensen has updated his classic work. His original sits beside my tying desk. The new one will replace the original.Simple, clear and easy to understand (insofar as Atlantic Salmon Flies can ever be "easy") in technique and illustration.This updated copy includes color photos (the old one apparently did not have the budget to print the photos in color) and addresses many issues that a starting Salmon Fly tier needs to know to start the steep learning curve for those patterns that are more art than function.This isn't a book devoted to "Art Salmon Flies", but if you want to go in that direction this is as fine an introduction as there is.This book addresses all aspects of tying these interesting and effective flies. You can easily tie a Jock Scott in hair wing or married wing with only a fair amount of time devoted to learning the new skills - if you are a decent intermediate Trout Fly tier.A wonderful book by a living master.
