Scores of color photos along with many line drawings, graphs and other illustrations. If you like to fish for steelhead and salmon you will find the information this book to be invaluable - regardless of how you fish (with fly, bait, plug, spinner, jig or bobber). This is a very revealing, post-graduate fishing technique book sure to please!
