painted the lead in alternate stripes of dark and 

 light brown. On the point of the hook thus pre- 

 pared, put either the body of a Harrylonglegs, 

 or of any of the larger flies ; — a Cad-bait is

 armed, I have killed many fish, by working it 

 in the same way as already described when 

 speaking of the Grasshopper ; but using no 

 float. When the fish are rising, it is a very 

 killing dodge ; particularly in streams, in rapids ; 

 but, in this case, it must be used within a few 

 inches of the surface.
