 tin or bone, the former to be used in rough water, and the 

 Latter in smooth ; those who contemplate going to sea, to be 

 sure of success, should take both kinds. The Bonita and 

 Skip Jack vary in size from 1 to 2 feet, and can be taken with 

 lighter tackle ; but to be on the safe side, and insure success, 

 employ your Dolphin line ; and should you use beef or pork 

 instead of the artificial squid, attach to your line stout 

 Kirby sea hooks, the size of 1-0 or 2-0 Limerick. In pur- 

 chasing and rigging your sea tackle, see that it is well made, 

 and perfectly strong. Let not parsimony deter you from 

 preparing it of the best quality, and you will never regiet 

 your angling enjoyments on the ocean.
