THE ANGLER'S SOUVENIR.

caught weigh less than half a pound each. In the 

 Thames, between Teddington and Windsor, very 

 large fresh-water trouts are sometimes caught. 

 Within the last twelve months three have been 

 caught, two with the net, and one with the rod 

 and fly, each of which weighed upwards of twelve 

 pounds. The beautiful engraving of a large trout, 

 given herein, from a painting by A. Cooper, R.A., 

 is a " portrait" of a well-fed five-pounder, which 

 was caught by the artist himself, in the Wandle, 

 in May, 1834.
