TROUT FLY-FISHING IN AMERICA 



Use light-colored flies when the sky is very dark 

 and overcast, or it is misty or rainy, no matter what 

 the water conditions may be at the time.

 the sky is dark, the flies should be light in color, dis- 

 regarding water conditions at all times.

 one fly is as good as another and just about as well 

 defined, irrespective of their color.
