 wings of that bird which are of a very light 

 hue) and guinea hen : the body is made of the 

 silver dun monkey if it can be got, light dun 

 fox or squirrel fur, or dyed blue dun mohair 

 mixed with yellow, — all these are good for a 

 body, ribbed with broad silver tinsel, and a 

 hackle of a real dun cock that has a yellowish 

 motley shade throughout it, rolled up to the 

 head, and round the shoulder a bright orange 

 dyed hackle, underneath which tie in a little 

 orange mohair. It may be varied with a claret 

 hackle at the head, or a fiery brown one. 

 No. 9 hook. A small grilse or sea-trout hook, 

 for small rivers in either Scotland or Ireland, 

 and also in the rivers of Wales, where it is a 

 native dun colour among the anglers. It will 

 be found a " don " to rise them. 



No. 7. A large dun palmer with a double 

 hook, which, will be observed, is of a tortuous 

 shape in the body, as it appears in the plate. 

 The shape may be obtained by tying the hooks 

 back to back, the top one to be tied about 

 quarter way down the shank of the end one, 

 and the gut tied tightly on each, (twisted gut 

 of course when you form a loop).
