Fly Fishing For Salmon (Painted Smile)

Note: This book is mostly good with the only annoyance being that it has the remnants of a price tag stuck to the cover.  (Not shown because this is a stock photo and I'm too lazy to scan it in.) There is some foxing on the top of the book.  The drawings are bw and there are no colour photos.  Even with all of this, it is still mostly good because it is an information dense book which it was lovingly written.  It's a good book.

Taking up salmon fly fishing is surprisingly difficult if you have not got lots of help and encouragement even if you fish for other species. There are many barriers......wilderness locations, cost, jargon and all the technical problems involving tackle and technique.The purpose of this book is to break all those barriers down. It will explain clearly what the absolute beginner needs to know. It will help solve the technical problems and common faults faced by 'improvers' and those advancing from trout fly fishing and other disciplines. Many experienced anglers are confused by some modern techniques and this guidance will get them right up to date.
