THE WONDERFUL TROUT 



A B, or at the other angles shown in the 

 accompanying diagrams, viz., at the angles 

 to the planes of C-D or E-F or G-H or 

 L-K, so will the angle of reflection M N 

 be equal, or greater, or less than the angle 

 of incidence L M 0. 



And further, if the plane of the reflecting 

 surfaces be corrugated or uneven, the more 

 conflicting and numerous will be the many 

 different angles of reflection, and the colours 

 of sky and reflected lights become more and 

 more fatal to the angler's hopes of success. 

 And we believe also the direct rays of sun- 

 light, making many angles with the plane of 

 the stream surface, or the bed of the river, or 

 particular reaches of the river, at different 

 hours of the day, have also varying effects 

 upon the feeding, or upon the vision of trout.
