138 ART OF ANGLING. 



PALMEE WOEMS. 



The Palmer Worm is a small worm covered with 

 hair, supposed to be so called because it wanders 

 over all plants. There are several kinds used for 

 fishing ; the following are the most killing. 



EED PALMEE. No. 30. 



The body of the Eed Palmer is made with dark 

 red mohair, ribbed with gold twist, and warped 

 with a blood red cock's hackle over the whole body ; 

 the hook No. 6 or 7. 



GOLDEN PALMEE. 



The body of orange-coloured silk, ribbed with 

 peacock's harl and gold twist, and warped with a 

 red cock's hackle. 



BEOWN PALMEE. 



The body of amber-coloured hog's down, ribbed 

 alternately with gold and silver twist, and warped 

 with a red cock's hackle. 



BLACK PALMEE. 



The body of black ostrich's harl, ribbed with 

 silver twist, and warped with a black cock's hackle. 



These Palmers will kill fish every month from 

 February to October, and are to be used in the 

 same manner as the artificial flies.
