How the White Feather Got 
Them When all Others Failed 
Trying Out a Rooster’s 7 
By DR. HARRY S. REYNOLDS 
ECENTLY I saw 
listed in a_ tackle 
catalogue an hybrid 
type of fly (or rather a 
feather minnow)  desig- 
nated as a Rooster’s Re- 
gret. The ad stated con- 
vincingly that it was a 
killer for landlocked sal- 
mon in rapid water. 
Probably the dry-fly art- 
ist would be inclined to 
look askance at such a 
freak and regard it as a 
low-brow proposition, but 
irrespective of esthetic 
considerations, and judg- 
ing by the criterion of ef- 
ficiency and results ob- 
tained, I personally can 
testify that the Rooster’s 
Regret is “all there.” 
Well do I remember my 
own regret and mingled 
feelings on the occasion of 
my first introduction to 
this lure at a northern 
Maine lake one early June 
morning. 
“You won’t need but 
two flies!” said Pete the 
Dane. “Take a parmache- 
nee belle for the dropper and a silver 
doctor for the stretcher!” 
The momentous time had arrived. 
The wind had arisen sufficiently to make 
a slight ripple upon the surface of the 
lake. I crept tc the edge of Hog Pier 
and gazed into the dark water which 
was moving restlessly below, and then 
I looked in the direction of the dam 
and sluiceway which were now distinct- 
ly visible in the rapidly advancing day- 
light, about 40 yards below me. Shad- 
owy forms were moving on the dam. 
The gates had not been up for over 
a month, and as they were at this mo- 
ment being raised to sluice some logs 
down over the dam into the river below 
on their journey to the pulp mills, 
was in a state of keen anticipation. 
When the gates are up, the water about 
Hog Pier is aroused into a state of con- 
siderable activity—and then the ouan- 
iniche, regardless of how deep and 
dreamy the lethargy under which they 
may have been cast, are (according to 
local tradition) invariably aroused and 
imbued with the mad spirit of the cur- 
rent. 
I gingerly whipped off about fifteen 
yards of line and was ready. 

Tt will identify you. 

An exciting moment in the land of the Ouananiche, 
Over across the pool by one of the 
abutments of the dam the water looked 
particularly inviting, there being a dis-_ 
tinct eddy where the pool narrowed at = 
this point. Lazily the stretcher settled — 
down on the surface, closely followed 
by the parmachenee belle; then I drew 
the cast gently toward me. As the 
flies approached I involuntarily braced 
myself for the assault. My cast came ~ 
so near to me that I was obliged to re- 
peat it. Once more the stretcher fly 
alighted on the surface of the pool, this 
time somewhat below the preceding 
cast—near to the dam, where the water 
was deep and black. Alas! Once more 
I was obliged to swallow my heart, 
turning a questioning look toward my 
guide. Pete was not reassuring. j 
O use! We may just as well go 
home! The salmon ain’t hungry. 
If they was they’d taken it the first 
time. I knew then it warn’t no use. 
When they don’t want to eat they won’t, 
that’s all. You can’t coax ’em when 
they feel that way. The pool is too 
calm. They won’t bite when it’s smooth 
like this. When you get a good ripple 
it make’s ’em hungry!”
