THE COMPLETE ANGLER. 



The hooks are just stuck through the worm, and it hangs from 

 them in a very natural manner. 



The large trout of the Thames are caught by spinning with a 

 gudgeon or bleak. The tackle described as suitable for pike, but 

 finer and dressed on gut, may be used ; but as this branch of fish- 

 ing, as also that for the great lake trout, will not come within the 

 reach of the ordinary angler, I will not dilate upon it. 



Trout may also be caught with gentles, caddis, and many other 

 baits.
