This page is dedicated to "the Most Famous but one Female Angling Author" and the beautiful flies described on her Magnus Opus "Favourite Flies and Their History", published in 1892.

This book was one of the most acclaimed in the fishing literature and has gone trough several reprinting until 1955.

These flies, for trout, bass and salmon have a unique style and a special feeling even after more than 100 years.

This is a deserved tribute to a gentle woman of the 19th century.
