206 color photos 13 drawings 9 x 8

Poul Jorgensen has developed a legion of fans for his salmon and trout patterns, which have stood the test of time on waters around the world. Jorgensen launched his career with two books in the 1970s, Salmon Flies and Modern Fly Dressings for the Practical Angler. In response to the demand for updated treatments of these classics, Stackpole has released new editions of both.

Poul Jorgensen's Favorite Flies is a revised, expanded version of Modern Fly Dressings for the Practical Angler, with full-color, step-by-step photos of selected patterns for trout, bass, pike, steelhead, and sea trout. More than 150 recipes are included.

Poul Jorgensen was born and raised in Odense, Denmark, but has lived and worked in the United States since the 1950s. He is an internationally known authority on flies and tying, and the author of several books, including Salmon Flies: Their Character, Style, and Dressing (0-8117-1427-6).
