io8 DRY-FLY FISHING 



the tail are ready for another offensive. In dis- 

 cussing this question, we admit that we are thinking 

 principally of Clyde and Tweed, the trout in which 

 are so much fished for and are so accustomed to 

 the sight of man that they resume feeding very soon 

 after interruption ; but in smaller waters and in 

 rivers less frequented we know that a longer stretch 

 is required for a day's fishing. Still there is nowhere 

 any necessity for much walking, and the angler 

 will find that his sport depends on the thoroughness 

 and care with which he fishes a few pools, rather 

 than on the amount of walking exercise he under- 

 takes.
