become a “shark” at short casting ana 
false casting, you can spread out a bit 
and get out fifty to sixty feet of line. 
Eeyond that it takes a very fine, stiff, 
tournament rod to give satisfaction, but 
I have found forty to sixty feet of line 
ample for all campaigns that I have un- 
dertaken against the wily trout. 
Having got some proficiency with home 
practice with your rod, choose a broad, 
open stream, where you will not be much 
bothered with trees catching your back- 
cast, buy a set of flies, put on the old hip 
boots with a pair of leather .sandals at- 
tached, and go to it. There will be plenty 
of fun ahead of you, and more trout than 
you would believe that you could ever 
catch. 
As to getting down a hung-up fly on 
a branch, I have found that the best way 
is to cut a long pole with a fork in the 
upper end of it. Catch this fork in the 
offending branch, and twist it off, when 
it will come down, bringing your fly with 
it. 
Such is trout fishing; a delightful re- 
creation, taking one into beautiful coun- 
try, in the most beautiful time of the 
year. And the whole art is teeming with 
interesting sport. 
SPORT IN THE 
SAWTOOTH RANGE

paradise for the angler if there ever was 
one. The beautiful brooks with water of 
crystalline clearness are a delight to any 
angler’s eye. It is no trouble to go out 
on any day on Warm Springs Creek 
and catch a twenty-four-inch trout. 
This creek is very clear and is named on 
account of the warm sulphur springs 
near its banks at one place. In the win- 
ter time the fish will collect at the place 
where these springs join the stream and 
the backwoodsmen who reside in this 
territory have no trouble in having a 
supply of fish on hand all winter. The 
gameness of the Warm Springs Creek 
trout is very noticeable. I have fought 
fish taken from this stream for a half 
hour before landing them. 
The Sawtooth streams are very pic- 
turesque. The angler who wade$ up- 
stream in any one of the Sawtooth 
streams will find many things to attract 
his attention. Old log cabins, log 
bridges and rail fences remind one of 
better days. There was a time when 
this country was prosperous as a mining 
community. That was long ago, but the 
relics of those forgotten days lend charm 
to these streams whose beautiful pools, 
glistening with the bright rays of the 
sun, are the hiding places of the crafty 
trout. 
The coachman fly is welcomed by the 
members of the piscatorial family of the 
Sawtooths. Wood River, famed afar for 
its excellent trout fishing, is a splendid 
place to use the coachman fly. as the 
clearness of the water makes this fly a 
favored one. I have used others 
though, with good success. I cannot but 
remember a three-pound trout I caught 
once in Wood River. The place was a 
deep pool where I had seen several trout 
several days before coming up to the sur-
