Carrie G. Stevens
(1882-1970)   



    
    
    
    

This charismatic housewife from rural 
western Maine popularized the American
mixed-wing streamer. This style of fly 
dressing has lasted for over eighty years,
and continues to be one of the most 
popular forms of tying. While she created 
numerous patterns, only about two dozen 
of these are widely known. FORGOTTEN
FLIES presents 170 Rangeley Favorite patterns
created or popularized by Carrie, together 
with their dressings.
