THE ANGLER S GUIDE. 



Note. — When angling in the sea, as well as in fresh 

 waters, early in the morning and late in the even- 

 ing, during the long days, and hot weather, is by far 

 the most likely time to have good sport. And further 

 observe, that when the sea- water is very bright, from 

 neap-tides and long calms, you must not expect much 

 sport, when angling from the rocks or close in shore, 

 for the Fish are then shy, and retire further leeward j : 

 but when the weather and water are somewhat settled,! 

 after a storm. Codlings, &c. will be found strong oiir 

 the feed.
