THE NEW ACME LINES 



(PATENT), 



Form the FINEST, STRONGEST, and most 



SCIENTIFICALLY CONSTRUCTED FLY and

Angling- Public. 



These Lines are strongly recommended in the Field, August 14, 1880 ;

 Setts Life, September 18, 1880 ; Advertiser, October 9, 1880 ; York-

The following are quotations from the leading Sporting Journals : 



" "We have examined it carefully and tried it with a rod, and are delighted with it. 

 We predict No. O will become the trout line of the future." Fishing Gazette 

 (leading article). 



" It is not heavier than any other line, while it throws very straight and true, and 

 cuts well through the wind." Field. 



" It appears to possess great advantages over the ordinary lines ; it has a good 

 spring, and what is of great importance, is not given to tangle." Land and Water. 



" It is a most important invention, coming as it does from the originator of many 

 great improvements in fishing tackle, and one of the most clever fly-fishers of the 

 times. A man who has perhaps done more for the piscatorial cause than any other." 

 From leader in the Austrian Sporting Times, March, 1881. 



Belts Life says, " We have given it a good trial, and are bound to add we are 

 highly pleased with the easy, clean manner in which a fairly-heavy bait can be 

 hrown." 



The Squire says, " It makes a perfect trout casting line, and is coming rapidly 

 into favour."
