BODY. Straw-coloured silk. 

 HEAD. Peacock herl. 



For cold days, and in the evenings during June and July. 



No. 58. LARGE ANT. Hook O. 

 WINGS. From a Starling's quill.

three turns of a copper-coloured Peacock's 



herl, as shown in the plate. 



HEAD. Peacock's herl. 



LEGS. Fibres from the light part of a Starling's quill 

 feather. 



Kills best on warm days towards the latter part of the 

 season. It is identical with Jackson's "Orange Stinger." 

 The natural fly never appears in large numbers. 



No. 59, SEA SWALLOW. Hook O. 

 WINGS. From a very light feather from the outside of a 



Sea Swallow's wing.

 WINGS. From a Starling's quill. 

 BODY. Yellow silk dubbed with a little Mole's fur. 

 LEGS. Fibre from a bluish dun Hen's neck. 



This is probably Jackson's little Olive Bloa, and is perhaps 

 the same fly as Theakston's pale blue Drake. It is common 

 on most English rivers and trout will occasionally take it 

 with great avidity.

 WINGS. None. 

 BODY. A little black Ostrich herl.
