Salmon Flies

Hey,

 

someone know of a tutorial for salmon flies?

Try Fly Anglers Online and Salmonfly.net, there are also many good books on the subject. Dick Talleur's "Pretty and Practical Salmon Flies" is a very good starter book.

Hi Jarrod

 

I hope Mr. Ron Lucas Sr. doesn't mind but I'm plugging his tutorials at flyanglersonline.com the direct link to his Salmon fly information pages is below. I find this information truely invaluable and hope it helps you also.

Double Ditto on Ronn Lucas's links!!

 

Jorgensen's "Salmon Flies..." is a nice tutorial. Pryce-Tannatt's book is a must-have if you get very serious about dressing Salmon flies, too.

 

Talleur's book? Well, "Practical" for sure, IMO. Some of the best flies in that publication were dressed by Per Stadigh.

I agree, the tutorials there are pretty sweet. Also, try Poul Jorgenson's books.

Yup, all good info. I started dabbling with Jorgenson's book. But was Ronn himself (not his tutorials) that pushed me to keep doing them. He's a great resource, and and even better person to talk with.
