U OF FISHING FOR 



consequence of such a stoppage. When this case 

 occurs he will, generally, do better by going below 

 the next mill which is working, or above that 

 which has just stopped, than by remaining in the 

 first place. 



We have already pointed out in the plan or 

 map, and in (Chap I. p. 4) the places in a brook 

 where Trout and Grayling are chiefly to be found: 

 such places should be carefully whipped. Two 

 or three throws in the same place is generally 

 sufficient. 



We have also shewn (Chap. I. p. 8) the advan- 

 tage of avoiding high stations, of seeking low 

 ones, of stooping down sometimes as low as pos- 

 sible, and even of wading, (provided that the 

 man takes care not to get " caught by the fish.") 

 Water-proof fishing boots as used in Scotland are 

 good things. 



The precaution of preventing our shadow, and 

 even that of the rod from falling on the water, 

 should also be adopted.

When a fish has just risen at a natural object, it

 him, but should the undulations have nearly died
