NEW PATTERN DITTO WITH UP-TUKN SHANK. 



(Patented United Kingdom, and U.S.A.) 



I have used both bends the Limerick and the Sneck 

 with nearly equal success, but my inclination is rather to 

 prefer the sneck pattern for small river flies, and also for 

 brown-trout lake flies especially as ' droppers ' ; and the 

 Limerick for anything larger, including of course salmon flies. 



The illustrations give two lake flies tied on the two different 

 bends : 



'SNECK' BEND. 'LIMERICK' BEND.
