study any fly. One moment it is before 
them, the next moment gone. Naturally 
therefore they must act swiftly, which 
they certainly do. It is quite needless 
to fish with over six kinds of flies. If 
six assorted ones won’t do it, six thous- 
and will not. 
Of the standard regulation flies I have 
had good success with the Grizzly King, 
Professor, White Miller, Gray Hackle, 
Coachman, and the Queen of the Waters. 
If you want to add three more styles, 
I would suggest the Brown Palmer, Cow- 
dung and the Silver Doctor. With the 
above (in the standard regulation form) 
I have registered my best success. If 
these flies fail you, there is no use trying 
anything else. At that, I fished against 
the regulation flies last summer with the 
Gove flies, with the true transparent 
wings, and won with ease. That is prin- 
cipally one reason why I am getting dis- 
interested in commercialized productions. 
These flies should come tied to number 
10 and 12 hooks. It is a good plan to 
have both sizes. 
Experimentation and close study have 
proven that the size of the fly counts for 
a great deal. Sometimes the mere 
changing from a large size to a small 
size fly has been the difference between 
an empty creel and a moderately filled 
one. Rarely is there need of using more 
than two flies to the leader. In fact I 
firmly believe that with one successful 
fly, using skill, consideration and judg- 
ment you will do best. All the papers 
and books I ever read on trout fishing 
always stipulate three flies. My idea is 
that if one fly won’t attract a fish, three 
won’t, nor will a hundred. 
Seth Green, I believe it was, or was 
it Thad. Norris, said that it didn’t mat- 
ter what sort of a fly you used? What 
counted was the way you fished that fly. 
He averred that you could make it an 
artificial, inanimate thing or something 
that had apparently, life. By this he 
meant that you should work the fly in 
the water so that it appeared like an 
insect drowning, or rising from the bot- 
tom of the stream to reach the air, and 
live its short and golden life. The per- 
son who first dubbed wet fly fishing as 
not being an art, hut a sordid “chuck 
and chance it” method, was, and is, a 
snob. True, the way some people fish, 
its no wonder they register so much 
poor luck. To get fish on the fly you 
must exert selection first, then you must 
judge conditions and cast true, and not 
send out upon the water a bunch of coils 
of line and conglomerated leader; then, 
too, in -working your fly down, and finally 
across the current, you must try to move 
it so that it looks and acts lifelike. This 
is done by a series of continued twitches 
to the rod, which often very well ser\’e 
to bring an open and close motion to 
the feathers and hackle. 
Furthermore, your amateur will make 
the same mistake that the bass fisherman 
makes. He will stand and whip a fly 
into the same place and cover the same 
strip of water fourteen times. This is 
foolish. 
Say that you are standing in the river 
commanding a wide semi-circle, within 
which are many good spots that look 
tempting. Start to cast toward the right 
hand side of the circle and work toward 
the center ahead of you. Do not be
