AMERICAN TROUT-STREAM INSECTS 



No. 5 is a splendid all-round fly for any condi- 

 tion or time. But the angler must use judgment: 

 if he discovers this fly on the wing, use it; if not, 

 imitate that insect which is most abundant. 



No. 9 is every bit as good as No. 1, and it is re- 

 liable at all times of day or evening because it is 

 present during the entire month in fairly good num- 

 bers. 



No. 11 is the same — a fine small fly that is taken 

 at almost any time. 



No. 14 is a dark dun, very useful for a change 

 from the drakes, if the former are not out, or are 

 not taken by the fish on cold, dull days. 



No. 16 can be used all through the month; but, 

 like many others, it is more effective from four 

 o'clock till dark. Weather conditions play a large 

 part in the choice of flies during June. 



No. 19 is a large spinner, to be used during the 

 afternoons and evenings. It is best cast on the 

 surface in quick flights, but never left in one place 

 and never allowed to sink. 



No. 20 can be fished all day. It should be 

 dragged along the surface and may be sunk in swift 

 runways or guided over and round submerged rocks 

 near rough water. 



For successful results in June fishing a great deal 

 depends upon favorable conditions. The best time 

 is when there is plenty of water, and the day is warm 

 and without wind. In every case, it is desirable
