The Salmon Fly
''The Salmon Fly'' - ''How to Dress It and How to Use It'' is a fly fishing book written by George M. Kelson published in London in 1895 by Messers. Wyman & Sons, Limited.
==Synopsis==
In ''The Salmon Fly'', George Kelson boldly and confidently distilled a lifetime of salmon fishing wisdom into this privately published work. The book contains 510 pages of text and 46 pages of illustrations plus 8 coloured plates showing 52 flies. Many of the black & white illustrations are of fly-fishing contemporaries of Kelson—to include Mr. A.V. Wells-Ridley J.P; Major J.P. Traherne; Mr. Barclay Field. The first part of the book is devoted to the techniques of tying the salmon fly as well as patterns for individual flies. Here's a typical pattern write-up:
*JOCK SCOTT. G.S.- (John Scott.)
*
*TAG. Silver twist and yellow silk.
*
*TAIL. A topping and Indian Crow.
*
*BUTT. Black herl.
*
*BODY. In two equal sections : No. 1, of yellow silk (butter-cup colour) ribbed with narrow silver tinsel, and butted with Toucan above and below, and black herl : No. 2, black silk, ribbed with broad silver tinsel.
*
*HACKLE. A natural black hackle, from centre.
*
*THROAT. Gallina.
*
*WINGS. Two strips of black Turkey with white tips, Golden Pheasant tail, Bustard, grey Mallard, Peacock (sword feather) Swan dyed blue and yellow, red Macaw, Mallard, and a topping.
*
*SIDES. Jungle.
*
*CHEEKS. Chatterer.
*
*HORNS. Blue Macaw.
*
*HEAD. Black herl.
It is only just possible to find a river or a catch, be it in pools,
streams, rapids, or flats, shaded or exposed to the light of day, in which a
"Jock Scott," when dressed properly, has not made for itself a splendid
reputation.〔

The second part of the book is devoted to the practical aspects of fishing for salmon with the fly—locating fish, casting techniques, catching and landing fish and various accessories and equipment. ''The Salmon Fly'' also includes 46 full page black and white advertisements for mostly angling and sporting pursuits.
