Summer, come into the Fords, their Dung al- 

 lures him thither. 



The Chuh bites in Summer from Sun-rife 

 till Nine o'Clock in the Forenoon, and from 

 Three o'Clock in the Afternoon till Sun-fet. 

 After flruck, he quickly yields, if a large one j 

 but the leffer ftruggle briskly and longer. In 

 Winter Months they bite in the Middle of the 

 Day, and in Sun-Ihine. During the Sum- 

 mer Seafon, if about Seven o'Clock in the E- 

 vening you go into a Pond or Boat, and float- 

 ing down the River, over which Willows or 

 other Trees do hang, angle with a Bee, Moth^ 

 or the like, as you do Wit\i t\\tariificid Fly 

 for ^rout^ they will rife as fail as you can 

 throw out your Line for them. 



To the Baits before-mentioned, which are 

 efteemed the beft, I will add a few others, tho' 

 the Chuh will take almoft any Sort of Bait. 

 Young Eels about the Thicknefs of a Straw ; 

 the Dew-worm and Red-worm well fcoured ; 

 the Earth-hob ; the Brains of an Ox or Cow ; 

 the Pith or Marrow of an Ox or Cow's Back- 

 hone •, fat Bacon : Thefe are good Baits for the 

 cooler Months. In the Summer Months, he 

 takes all Sorts of Baits bred on Flerbs, Plants, 

 or Trees -, alfo Gentles^ young IVafps, Hornets^ 

 and Bores, Snails he takes early in the Morn- 

 ing, but feldom in the Heat of the Day. He 

 loves a large Bait, as a Wafp and a Colewort- 

 worm, and will bite at divers SoriS of Flies on 

 the Hook at once.
