bear's hair, with a little blue and yellow mo- 

 hair intermixed, lapped on with yellow silk ; 

 a dun whig from the kite's wing feather, and 

 "two horns, or forks, from a foulmarf s tail, and 

 made the same way as the great whirling dun. 

 It is a very killing fly in every river, rapid 

 stream, and shallow water. 



No. 2. The greeto-drak^wtiich comes 

 in about the twenty-fifth day of May, and is 

 taken till about the twenty-first of June, in 

 all rivers, and almost in every hour of the 

 day. The wings, the grey spotted feather of 

 a mallard, dyed yellow; the body, a little fine 

 wool from the ram's testicles, which is of a 

 beautiful dusty yellow, and ribbed with cop- 

 per-coloured silk, with a dark bittern's hackle 

 for legs, and two hairs from the fitchat's tail 

 for the tail, or forks, and a bit of the brown 

 peacock's harl from the tail feather for the 

 head. This is a large fly, and should be 

 made on a hook No. 5, or large No. 6 ; there 

 requires no further instructions for making 

 it, than what has before been given.
