FISHING TACKLE OF A HIGH GRADE.

TheBrayFlyBook 



.^_^„ 



ls 'without question the finest and most per-^ 

 feet Fly Book ever put on the market. 



The Gfic Heel. 



The great sale of the Gogebic 

 R«?el proves it to he for a mod- 

 erate priced Reel a very superior 

 article. 



Improved Automatic Reel. 



The Reel for fine fishing which all anglers 

 are coming to is the Automatic 



Anchor Brand Snelled Hooks. 



The great variation in the price of Silk Worm Gut enables a manufacturer of Snelled Boohs to make 

 these goods at almost any price a dealer cares to pay They can do this by simply grading the quality of 

 Gut used. The result is that the market is full of a very inferior lob of Snelled Hooks, which no Angler 

 would use if he knew that he could procure better. Many Snelled Hooks are sold all complete for a price %ss 

 than good Gut alone could be bought for. We believe that it is as essential to have a well tied Hook on 

 good Gut as it is to have a good Line or Rod, and for this reason and to maintain a high quality of giods, 

 ate putting up a grade of Harrison's First Quality Hooks, tied on the best Mar ana Gut, and wh'ch are very 

 much superior to the regular goods on the market, and will call them our "Anchor Brand." Each package 

 will, bear a Trade Mark of an Anchor, with the words "Anchor Brand." We believe that 

 Anglers will willingly pay a sight addition in price when they understand that they are 

 getting the very best in the market, and we hope for their encouragement in our efforts 

 to maintain a high quality of goods for their use.
