THE DRIFFIELD ANGLEtt. Ill 



also you may be supplied with single-handed 

 rods for fly-fishing. 



But in these latter days bag-rods have been 

 Invented, which the angler may easily con- 

 ceal, and not proclaim to all the world where 

 he his going : those for float-fishing are now 

 become common,, but this invention has lately

 not only heavy and apt to be out of repair, 

 but are absolutely unnecessary ; and the 

 common way of inserting one joint into

 portable, and useful one, as no angler that 

 has once tried it will ever be without.

 of the top, and made of the best yellow hic-
