Fishing for trout and steelhead in Oregon, mainly on the Rogue River and Paulina Lake. "Paulina Preferred is a volume of rather unusual content and interest, in that it includes material of personal reminiscence and adventure; results of research of scientific and historical significance; fishing lore of general and of technical value; a bit of philosophy; an account of a rare achievement in photography, and photographic illustrations of beauty and charm. A chance misadventure while fishing on the Rogue River in Southern Oregon some years ago, served to introduce James G. Linck, the author, to the spectacular attractions, the piscatorial opportunities, and the scenic lure of the Paulina Lake country in the Cascades. The Lake and its environment so impressed him, that he has returned year after year. Paulina Preferred, with the Lake as a background for some personal memoirs, is his contribution to the fascinating story of the area." Chapters include:- What manner of man - and book; The Adirondacks and Canadian adventure; "Shangri-La"; The Crater and the Lakes; About certain pictures; ".of many things"; Loch Leven trout - not a "finned Frankenstein"; Ace "Ringtailed Fighter"; The Cony's Challenge; "Time is of the essence"; On being alone. .
