Tackle, Fig. 48, 



has been sent me 



by Gregory, Vyse- 



street, Birming- 

 ham, which, after 



careful trial, I am 



disposed to place in 



a very respectable 



position amongst 



the trout and pike 



nights. The cut 



(Fig. 48) shows it. 



It is a sure captor, 



and may be used 



wherever the fish 



run short with great 



advantage. 

 As will be seen, a 



lead of elongated 



shape terminating 



in a wire hook of 



hardened brass is 



connected directly 



with the flanges,and 



a single hook, which 



is generally passed 



through the upper 



part of the shoulder 



of the bait usually 



hangs to the left. 



Following is the 



method of baiting. 



Take a minnow or 



other fish of suit- 

 able size the tackle 

 is made in all sizes and push the lead and wire hook first down into the
