ANGLING REQUISITES, FOR SEASON 1887. 85 



FOSTER'S "WOOLLEY BEAR" OR CATERPILLAR, 

 FOR SUNK FLY-FISHING FOR SALMON, SEA, AND BROWN TROUT. 



This is found to be the best lure it is possible to use on a fly cast. 

 It is not loaded, but it is of the weight and make of an ordinary 

 palmered fly. It will kill almost equally well in bright, clear, and still 

 water, well whipped over fish, as it will in a " spate " or fresh. A rich 

 fiery brown is the prevailing colour, the feather fibres thus show a 

 brilliant colour when held in a position for the eye to look through 

 them. We have inserted a few extracts from reports of fishermen who 

 have used them, elsewhere ; we add a couple further. These and more 

 may be seen on application, in full, as received : 



" Garynakine Inn, Stornaway, N.B. 



" I have taken, out of a total of 19 salmon, 12 of them with your 

 salmon sized caterpillar, and these not from broken water, but still pools. 

 I can kill with this on this water when all others I try fail. 



"E. N. WOODHAM. 

 "July 2oth, 1882." 



" Chesterton Villa, Chertsey Road, 



" Clifton, Bristol. 



" I find salmon take your ' Woolley Bear ' or Caterpillar well. I have 

 landed some good fish with them. Pray tie me some on larger hooks 

 than the last, as the fish occasionally are too big and heavy for the light 

 and rather little hooks on the last lot. 



" GEORGE A. CUYLER (Colonel)."
