Fly-Fishing for Pacific Salmon II includes an expanded history of the fishery; new full-color identification paintings of the five Pacific salmon species; additional photos of salmon feed; fishing in fresh and saltwater utilizing new techniques and tackle; and a chapter on fly patterns'classic and new'for use in fresh and saltwater, contributed by fly tiers along the Pacific coast from California to Alaska. There is also a brand-new chapter on the art of bucktailing. Johnson and Ferguson are committed to stewardship of the Pacific salmon. Fly-Fishing for Pacific Salmon II will help you catch more salmon, but of greater significance is its focus on the critical need for environmental awareness and ethical harvest that will ensure the future of Pacific salmon.

Centuries of our greatest assaults on nature can be seen in their harrowing yet awe-inspiring life cycle. Full of all Kurlansky’s characteristic curiosity and insight, Salmon is a magisterial history of a wondrous creature. ‘An epic, environmental tragedy’ Spectator ‘These creatures have nurtured our imagination as surely as our bodies. This book does them justice!’ Bill McKibben

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Guide to Saltwater Flyfishing for the Pacific Coast's Salmon, presented by award winning author and avid fisherman Barry M. Thornton. Until recently, little has been written about saltwater fly fishing for Pacific salmon. It is, unquestionably, a sophisticated fly-angling choice for the fly fisherman that comes after many successful conventional salmon fishing experiences. It is not new, but an angling practice many pioneers attempted, some very successfully, however it has not been followed up as it should! It is probably a symptom of our times - our pioneering spirit - that, now that we have resolved the skills and techniques needed for consistently successful river and lake fishing, we are now searching for new waters in which to test our mettle. Fortunately, lying at our doorstep is the open water of the vast Pacific Ocean. Improvements in boats and motors and the evolution if fly fishing lines, rods, and fly-tying materials have given the fly fisherman the tools and the access to the fish. How fortunate we are to have such a family of fish, the genus Oncorhynchus, the Pacific salmons inhabiting these waters. These various species of Pacific salmon inhabit the infinite fjords, inlets, islands and estuaries of the north Pacific coast waiting, just waiting for the inevitable rush of fly fishermen who have mastered challenging and pleasurable trout experiences in freshwater lakes and streams and now, satiated, search for new waters and experiences.
