APPENDIX. 



DRESSINGS OF SALMON FLIES. 



HE dressings of the following flies 

 have (with a few exceptions) been 

 selected from many others described 

 in the Fishing Gazette by Mr. 

 G. M. Kelson, Mr. W. Murdoch, Mr. P. D. 

 Malloch, Mr. D. O'Fee, and Mr. W. Brown. 

 When compiling the list, I had two objects in 

 view. The first was, that it should contain 

 patterns of every style of fly, and the second, 

 that a few dressings could be selected from it 

 which would suit any river. 



The beginner will find plenty of variety here. 

 He should commence with the easiest patterns, 

 such as grubs, and flies with plain wings ; and 

 gradually work up to the more difficult. 



i. AJAX GRUB. (Mr. Kelson.) 



Tag. Silver twist and red silk. 



No. i hackle. A small coch-y-bonddhu, and two 

 very small jungle, one on either side of the 

 hook, pointing towards the tag, and in line 

 with the shank.
