hoppers, natural flies, or small bits of fat 

 meat. 



In comparatively still water a quill float, 

 or a very small one of cork, must be used 

 to keep the bait about a foot from the 

 bottom, with a light sinker to balance the 

 float. In swift water the float will not be 

 required, but the small sinker is needed to 

 keep the bait near the bottom. My advice, 

 however, would be to pay court to the 

 " lady of the streams " with the artificial 

 fly as the only fitting gage to cast before 

 her ladyship. 



The angler who visits Yellowstone Na- 

 tional Park, after viewing the beauties and 

 marvels of that wonderland, and enjoying 

 the excellent trout fishing, may go by a 

 regular stage line to Riverside at its west- 

 ern boundary, and thence a few miles to 

 the upper Madison basin. Here, within 

 an area of a dozen miles, are several forks 

 of the Madison River, and Beaver Creek 

 in the upper canon, where he may enjoy 

 the finest grayling fishing in the world.
