122 BT IIOOS: ANB BY CROOK, 



SO we gave it up for the day, warmed ourselves up with 

 " a wee drop of the mon," and walked home, to discuss 

 the incidents of the day over a good feed and a warm fire. 



The above sport was gained by one rod : curiously 

 enough the other never had a touch all day, though 

 regular turns were taken in fishing the pools ; indeed, 

 the twenty-five pounder was caught while fishing after 

 the other rod, whose fly in all probability originally woke 

 him up. 



After killing the first fish, rod No. 1 gave the success- 

 ful fly to rod No. 2, who, as stated above, likely enough 

 attracted with it the second fish, which eventually fell" a 

 victim to rod No. 1 with a somewhat similar fly. Such 

 is luck!
