52 ALL ABOUT TROUT FISHING. 



This system requires much patience, but 

 frequently large trout are captured in this 

 way, especially during the daytime, with 

 a bright sunshine from a cloudless sky, in 

 low and clear waters, when other modes 

 of angling are at a discount. Under these 

 conditions trout move about, and the 

 angler who has patience for such pro- 

 ceedings often meets with his reward. 



CADDIS BAIT. 



The caddis bait, which is also found in 

 the bed of the river, may be baited and 

 fished in exactly the same way as the 

 creeper. This lure also works well by the 

 side of pools, casting a fairly long line up- 

 stream. A combination of the caddis 

 used in the slower running water and the 

 creeper in the stronger streams usually 

 works well. These baits are rather repul- 

 sive to look at and handle, so those 

 fastidious anglers who object to bait-fishing 

 generally had better skip these few pages.
