114 FLIES FOR JUNE. 



peared they remain in good condition until the 

 spawning season. When fish have gorged them- 

 selves with this fly and leave off feeding, towards 

 the evening they will be tempted by flies of very 

 different sizes and colours. The best are, for 

 mild weather, little dun-hackles of every shade, 

 the grouse and wren-hackle, house-fly, and at 

 dusk a moth-fly. Should you want trout very 

 badly during the drake season, try a minnow 

 morning and evening, and your wants will be soon 

 supplied.

I need scarcely remind the reader that the May- 

 fly prevails during the greater part of this month; 

 and that during it, several of the duns mentioned 

 for May will still catch fish. The following are 

 considered proper June flies : 



No. 51. Dark mackerel. Body, dark mulberry 

 floss-silk ribbed with gold twist ; wings, brown- 

 mottled feather of the mallard, which hangs from 

 the back over a part of the wing ; legs, a purple- 

 dyed hackle ; tail, three rabbit's whiskers. Hook, 

 Nos. 9 and 10. 



No. 52. Orl-fly. Body, ribbed alternately 

 with dark -brown and orange dubbing, adding two 

 horns ; wings, landrail's ruddy feather, dressed 

 long and rather flat ; legs, a grizzled hackle.
