FLY PATTERNS OF ALASKA: ALASKA FLYFISHERS. Edited by Dirk V. Derkson.
1993 revised edn reprint. 4to paperback. Pp80. Colour photographs throughout.
"In the decade since [this book] was first published, there has been a significant increase in fly fishing in Alaska's streams, lakes and oceans. Patterns have evolved and new flies developed as fly fishers have discovered new materials and better ways to simulate items in the diet of salmon, trout, char, grayling, sheefish, northern pike, and even halibut. As a result, we have nearly doubled the number of patterns illustrated in this new edition. Revision of [this book] required over two years of work and involved many members of the Alaska flyfishers who contributed time and talent." Chapters include: Alaska Flyfisher's History; Streamers and bucktails; Steelhead, salmon, and char flies; Egg and alevin imitations; Nymphs and wet flies; Dry flies; Saltwater flies; Top patterns for Alaska's sportfish.
