water slowly and easily so as not to disturb the 
finny ones. If they should be aware of your 
presence, it is hard telling what your success 
will be. Let your shadow be behind you. If 
it is in front, it will be to the fish a warning of 
your presence. Trout lie in the little pools and 
often against or near some projection, as for 
instance a rock or a bank in dark shadowy places 
still and silent. There your flies will do their 
■duty. By all means procure for yourself a fly 
book. It may not seem necessary to you, but 
you have only to carry flies around in your 
pockets to learn this little lesson. There are 
compartments for the various flies, and at a 
glance you can tell where the one you are hunt¬ 
ing for happens to be. When you put up your 
things for the season, be sure that your flies 
are protected from the moths. The moths often 
play havoc with these fragile things, and it is 
taking money from your pocket. Place them in 
bottles and be sure of them. 
TROUT FISHING IN GERMANY. 
Continued from page 46. 
enberg’s Park is a large lake holding good trout. 
Hotel, Schutze. 
Dusseldorf on Rhine. —There are a few 
salmon and trout with plenty of chub, and other 
fish. In May a fish called Mayfish runs up the 
river; they will not take a fly. 
Forchheim.— Between Miremberg and Bam¬ 
berg. At Muggendorf, on Wisent, good trout 
and grayling fishing can be had. Leave can be 
obtained. 
Freiburg (Baden).—Hotel, Zahringer Hof. 
On Dreisam, trout and grayling. Ten miles 
north at Waldkirchen there is good trouting in 
Elz; apply to the landlord of the Post Plouse. 
At Ochs (Hotel, Wilden Mann) some trouting 
can be had by leave from the proprietor. At 
Feldburg, twenty-four miles off, the hotel on 
the spot rents the fishing of Feldsee; trout run 
large. 
Frendstadt (Black Forest).—Hotel, 
Schwarzwald; good trouting. 
Heidelberg (Baden).—-Good trout fishing 
eight miles from Heidelberg by payment of 9d. 
for every pound weight of fish you catch and 
take away with you. Very large trout at the 
Wolf’s Spring two miles off; bottom fishing for 
chub near the barge wharf is best. (See 
Neckar-Steinach). 
Hesse-Cassel.— There is a fair trout stream 
near. 
Homburg (Baden).—Gutach. Trout, gray¬ 
ling; preserved for two miles by the landlord of 
the Bear Hotel; fishing fair; wading necessary. 
The Brooks Essbach and Ober Elsenbach near 
town are small and contain a fair stock of chub. 
They are preserved by the landlord of the Vic¬ 
toria Hotel, who has some trouting also. Nidd 
runs four miles from here. Tickets, 4b. per 
day can be obtained from the burgomaster. 
Plenty of chub and white fish, also pike. 
Katzenellenbogen on Dorsbach. —Good and 
cheap accommodation at Bremser’s Hotel, where 
leave may be obtained, but the trout must be 
given up. A small amount is charged for the 
necessary license. 
Kyllburg on Kyll.— Contains trout and 
grayling. The Eifler Hof is a good hotel, and 
has for visitors seven miles of free water, well 
stocked with trout, a few grayling and plenty 
of chub and large bleak. The river is best 
fished from Densborn down past Zendscheit and 
St. Thomas. 
Langen-Schwalbach.— Aar. A long stretch 
of the river may be fished by visitors to the 
Hotel Metropole. Wet fly does very well and 
dry fly is useful in summer. Fish run up to 
one pound. Good flies are red palmer, March 
brown, red ant, red and blue uprights, Wick¬ 
ham's and Governor, the latter with red hackle 
and no wing in the day time, and white wing 
in the evening. 
Ligneuville (via Spa and Stavelot).—On 
Ambleve. Spring fishing is uncertain; May 
would be a better month. Fish run four to the 
pound. Flies are March brown, red spinner and 
red palmer. Doumoulin’s is a very comfortable 
and reasonable hotel. 
Mentz.— In the Nendorf Brook there is 
good trout fishing. 
Murnau (Bavaria).—There are two lakes 
here, Staffelsee and Reig See, containing trout. 
Staffel See Hotel. We believe the landlord of 
the principal hotel can obtain leave. By taking 
a cross road, Saulgrub can be reached. Accom¬ 
modation indifferent. The Amer runs near, con¬ 
taining trout. The fishing between the Saulgrub 
and Unter Ammergrau is very good, but it is 
doubtful whether fishing can be had at this latter 
place. At the village of Baiersoyen, three-quar¬ 
ters of an hour from Saulgrub, on the road to 
Schongau, is a small lake containing trout, and 
within an hour of Baiersoyen, at Wildsteg, is 
another lake. 
Neckar. —Steinach (ten miles from Heidel¬ 
berg). Fair trouting; tickets from the inn¬ 
keeper. 
Nieder Andorfer (Bavaria).—On the Inns¬ 
bruck line. Two hours and a half off is Walch 
See, containing good trout. 
Oderbruck. —Oder. In the pools are large 
trout. 
Sch walbacii (Nassau).—The landlord of 
the Hotel Metropole rents twenty-five miles of 
a fine stream, which he preserves for his visit¬ 
ors, as does also the landlord of the Hotel 
Nassau. 
Senierke on Bode.— Good trouting; permis¬ 
sion easily obtainable. 
Triberg Baden, Gutach.— Trout. Some lit¬ 
tle fishing is attached to two or three of the 
hotels there. The town waters are let at 10 
marks per season. 
Weimar.— River eleven miles. Eight or ten 
miles of best water, limited to four rods at a 
time; artificial fly only; fish under half-pound 
to be returned in the upper water and under 
one pound in the lower. All fish to be given 
up alive, or may purchase at is. 6d. per pound. 
Charge for fishing, 5s. per day, or £1 per week. 
Catches of over twenty pounds not unusual. 
First class accommodation at the Hotel Erb- 
prinz, the proprietor of which will be pleased to 
give every information. 
Weinheim (Baden).—Good trout fishing; 
permission can be obtained at the various inns 
(Pfalzerhof, etc.) where there is a “Forellen- 
fang,” accommodation fair. 
Wildbad (Wurttemberg.—On Ens. Trout 
and grayling. Sport is good, and the Hotel de 
Russie very comfortable. License costs 12s. a 
week; fly only is allowed.
