4 BEST'S ART OF ANGLING, 



PALMER-FLY, PALMER-WORM, WOOL- BED, OR 

 CANKERS^ 



Fourid on herbs, plants and trees, where they 

 are bred, if not a perfect caterpillar, yet un- 

 doubtedly a species thereof; they gain the name 

 of wool-beds from their outward parts being 

 woolly ; these and the May-fly are the founda- 

 tion ofjly angling. 



These are good baits either for Trout, Chub, 

 Grayling, Roach, or Dace. 



BOBS, 



Found in sandy and mellow ground, and got by 

 following the plough in autumn, are worms as 

 big as two maggots, have red heads, and their 

 bodies full of guts : put them in a tub with 

 some of the mould that you gather them in, 

 keep them in a warm place, and they are an ex- 

 cellent bait from the first of November till the 

 middle of April : you may boil them the morn- 

 ing you intend angling, in milk and water for 

 two minutes, which win make them tough : and 

 put them in a box where gum ivy has been 

 rubbed. 



These are choice baits, from the beginning 

 of November until after the middle of April, for 

 ChubjRoach, Dace, Salmon-smelts, Trout, Bream, 

 Tench, and Carp. 



COW-TUTU* BOB> OR CL^P-BJIT, 



Found under a cow-turd from the beginning of 

 May to Michaelmas ; it is bigger than a gentle.
