FLY-FISHING. 15 



House Fly, Humble Bee, 



Cow Dung, Granamor Greentail, 



Red Spinner, Duns and Cocktails. 



We have remarked in our preface, that we 

 recommend the purchase of every article re- 

 quired by the Angler, we must however, make 

 an exception to the rule here. It sometimes 

 happens that with all the advantages of a good 

 colored water, a favorable day, and a good 

 wind, fish will not take any of your flies. 

 Should you be unfortunate enough to be placed 

 in this position, you must carefully seek for the 

 kind of fly which is at the time about the 

 stream, it will be required of you then to know 

 sufficient of fly making to sit down patiently 

 and carefully to imitate as near as you can the 

 natural fly.
