214 LAKE AND STREAM GAME FISHING 



Besides being a sure-enough anti-backlasher it also 

 is a level-winder and being hand-made is a reel that 

 will last a lifetime if given care. It sets you back 

 $20, but your reel troubles are a thing of the past 

 and it does everything but " clean the fish for the 

 spider." Seventy-three orders were ahead of me 

 when I got mine and I think that speaks some for it. 



QUESTION. Will you tell me about Antiback- 

 lash reels? Are they reliable and what are some 

 good ones? 



ANSWER. The Antiback-lash reels are O. K. and 

 for the fellow who cannot give much time to prac- 

 tice of thumbing the ordinary reel are a life-saver. 

 The South Bend Antiback-lash and the Pflueger- 

 Redifor Antiback-lash are both good, well made 

 reels. They are very good for night and moon- 

 light casting also. 



QUESTION. What are good salmon flies? And 

 what is the usual length of a salmon rod? D. K. 



ANSWER. Try these: Silver Doctor, Jock Scott, 

 Silver Gray, Durham Ranger, Dusty Miller and 

 Black Fairy. Salmon rods are generally 15 feet in 

 length, are built with double hand grips as both 

 hands are used in casting. 



QUESTION. What are a couple good artificial 

 plugs for river bait casting? W. H. B.
