 when the days are warm and sunny. 



July Fishing. From the end of June till the 

 end of August, fly-fishing with the small artificial 

 fly is not by any means a remunerative employ- 

 ment, unless on a cold stormy day, or in a black 

 stream after heavy rains ; and then the following 

 will be found a good cast : 1, trail-fly froghopper ; 

 2, blae, as in spring; 3, sand-fly; 4, hare's -ear 

 dun ; 5, white tip ; 6, sand-fly ; 7, blae ; 8, sand- 

 fly ; 9, blae. 



The black mote makes its appearance during 

 hot weather in June, and exists throughout July 

 and August. In hot sultry days, when feeding on 

 this fly, the trout will rise to nothing else ; and 

 when such is the case, the angler will do well to 

 have the cast composed entirely of it. 



August, September, and October Fishing. 1, Trail- 

 fly autumn red ; 2, blae ; 3, autumn musk - fly ; 

 4, pale autumn dun, or willow-fly ; 5, white tip ; 6, 

 blae ; 7, hare's-ear dun ; 8, blae ; 9, autumn brown. 



The above form a good selection for a cast in 

 autumn, but the angler need not limit himself to 

 these. Several of the flies already given in the 

 list may be found more attractive than others on 

 certain days ; and whenever one or more particular 

 flies are observed to be doing well, let the cast carry 

 two or three good specimens of the favourites.
