I can make this box hold all that I have occa- sion for at any ordinary fishing bout. My great lines, I have with flies and bait hooks at them, in the bigger round ; all my links, with flies at them, in the second round $ and hooks, silks, The North Country Angler. 19 wings, hackles and dubbing, in the little box. There is one convenience in this box, that the flies are not pressed, or any way crushed in it, as they may be, perhaps, in the pocket-book.
CHAP. V. Of Dubbings.
INSTEAD of a great b...ag full of dubbings, I would rather advise the angler to get a quan- tity of fine swine's down, dyed by a silk- dyer, of several colours, viz. Three degrees of yellow, two of green, two of brown, &c. And feathers for wings and hackles of the same colours. No more of the feathers need be dyed than what may be used ; all the rest stripped off the quill before.
I have seen white ostrich's feathers, which if dyed of several colours, would make the bodies of larger flies exceeding well ; over which silver and gold twist, and cock's hackles, would make all kinds of palmers for large fish.
