114 OLD FLIES IN NEW DRESSES 



which are larger, but not many of these 

 swim about much in the water. Some are 

 brownish-yellow, and some nearly black. 

 Some should have a tail made of two or 

 three strands of hackle the same colour 

 as the body. Some have appendages on 

 the sides of the body, and in the imitations 

 of these the hackle must be tied in at the 

 tail, carried up over the body, and a couple 

 of turns given at the shoulder. They may 

 be made in various shades, from brownish- 

 yellow to black. I have not yet had time 

 to work out any proper scheme of imita- 

 tions, but only write this as a suggestion.
