The book you are looking for is ;  A Compendium of Canadian Fly Patterns
Blue Christmas (Coho) page 59
Saint Nick  (Coho)  page 66
Dec 25  (Chum) page 61
Mat Green  (Chum) page 64
Pinkuhchew  (Pink) page 65
Dolly Whacker (Large preditorial Trout) page 79
SouBoo (Cariboo Trout & Char) page 191

patterns developed since submitions for the compendium were excepted:

Flat Black (Spring & Steelhead) tying instructions patterned after the Mat Green using black ostrich hurl for the body and no (that is o) flash.

Bite Me  (Coho) Basicaly a hybride of the Mat Green & Rolled Muddler, Tie this one with a metalic blue body, muddler head, tail, and under wing, blue collar and a blue flashabou over wing.
