Housed in original slip case. *** (Synopsis) If the Atlantic salmon can be called the king of gamefish, then the marvelous concoction of fur and feathers that entices them must be recognized as the king of lures. In this lavish presentation, Colonel Joseph D. Bates Jr., makes the first contemporary attempt to present a full account of the Atlantic salmon fly. Relying on a lifetime of experience as an angler, writer, and collector, Bates, a man regarded by many as the acknowledged expert in the field, takes us on a tour of the history and development of these remarkably beautiful lures.
