236 FLY-FISHING. 



No. 33. THE CINNAMON FLY. 



This fly comes from a water pupa. It should be 

 used after a shower, and on a windy day. It is a 

 very killing fly on some waters, and somewhat re- 

 sembles the land fly, but does not appear so early. 



Imitation. 



Body. Fawn-colored mohair, tied on silk of the 

 same color. 



Wings. Feather of a yellow-brown hen's wing, 

 rather darker than the thrush feather. To lie flat. 



Legs. A ginger hackle. 



The pinnated grouse's small wing-feather, dyed a 

 pale cinnamon with madder and copperas, is an ex- 

 cellent feather for the wings of this fly, and of No. 

 34. 



No. 34. THE CINNAMON DUN. 



This ephemera is found in abundance on the 

 streams in Pike Co., Pa., and in some other locali- 

 ties. It is similar to the little yellow May dun, but 

 is of a bright cinnamon color, and comes on in July 

 and August. Its metamorphosis is of a light red 

 brown, with wings almost white. 



Imitation. 



Body. Red and yellow mohair spun on yellow 

 silk, and ribbed with the same. 



Wings. The light feather of a grouse's wing, 

 dyed cinnamon with madder, or the feather of a 

 curlew's wing.
