278 HOW THAMES TROUT ARE CAUGHT. 



the gudgeon, dace, and bleak. In the summer 

 months they will take large artificial flies. The 

 best are Blacker's ' winged larva,' very large red 

 and furnace hackles, with winged flies made of a 

 reddish feather, and red, brown, and yellow bodies. 

 In the evening, like nearly all the salmonidse, they 

 will take artificial moths. 



The salmon trout, bull trout, and white trout 

 or sewin, are all to be taken with small salmon 

 flies or lake flies; an excellent list of which I 

 have already given under the head of salmon. 

 The winged larva will be found a deadly bait for 

 those fish. They may be caught also with the 

 worm, or by spinning a small natural or artificial 

 fish. A very large coch-y-bonddu, ribbed with 

 gold or silver tinsel, is a capital bait for the white 

 trout or sewin. 



In salmon and trout fishing, great success is 

 obtained by wading. The best waterproof cos- 

 tume for the purpose is made by Cording and Co., 

 Temple Bar. Your fishing-boots for the bank 

 should be made by Medwin of the Regent Circus, 

 and your fishing-socks and ankle-boots for wading 

 by the Messrs. Cording. Order them similar to 

 ' Ephemera's,' and the above tradesmen will know 

 what you want.
