Wishbook for Alaska Flytiers

"Fly Patterns" is an encyclopedia of patterns found effective by the Alaska Flyfishers. It contains both patterns that are well-known to flyfishers from the lower 48 and quite a few patterns that originated in the Last Frontier. Each pattern has a high-quality photograph, a recipe and a short description of how the pattern is used in Alaska. The chapters are devoted to particular types of flies (e.g., streamers, salmon flies, egg flies, etc.). A good, comprehensive index is provided.Other books of interest for those intending to flyfish in Alaska:"Flyfishing Alaska" and "Flies for Alaska" both by A. J. Route.
