, _Froggs_, _Bobb_, _Brown-Flies_, _Grashoppers_,
_Hornets_, _Wasps_, _Bees_, _Snails_, small _Roaches_, _Bleak_,
_Gudgeon_, or _Loaches_.

Secondly, _Artificial living Baits_, of _Flyes_ of all sorts and shapes,
made about your Hooks with Silk and Feathers, at all times seasonable,
especially in blustering Weather.

Lastly, _Dead Baits_, Pasts of all maings, Wasps dryed or undryed,
clotted _Sheeps-blood_, _Cheese_, _Bramble-berries_, _Corn_, _Seeds_,
_Cherries_, &c. The two first good in _May_, _June_ and _July_, the two
next in _April_; and the last in the _Fall_ of the Leaf.

_Of Flies._

Of _Natural_ Flies there are innumerable, and therefore it cannot be
expected I can particularize all; but some of their Names I shall
nominate, _viz._ The _Dun-Fly_, _Red-Fly_, _May-Fly_, _Tawny-Fly_,
_Moor-Fly_, _Shell-Fly_, _Flag-Fly_, _Vine-Fly_, _Cloudy_ or
_Blackish-Fly_, _Canker-Flies_, _Bear-Flies_, _Caterpillars_, and
thousands more, differing according to the Soiles, Rivers or Plants.

_Artificial Flies_, are made by the ingenious Angler, according to Art,
in shape, colour and proportion like the Natural Fly, of _Fur_, _Wool_,
_Silk_, _Feathers_, &c. To delineate which I must confess my self not so
accurate and skilful a Painter, nor can any Pen-drawing illustrate their
Various Colours so, as to direct their Artificial Counterfeit; Nature
will help him in this by Observation, curiously Flourishing their
several Orient and bright Colours, after which they take their names,
as before said: And therefore to furnish your self with both Natural and
Artificial _Flyes_, repair in the morning to the River, and with a Rod
beat the Bushes that hang over the Water, and take your Choice; This is
a Rule whereby you may know by their Number what _Fly_ the Fish affect
most, and accordingly to use it; taking with you these following
Directions.

1. Observe to Angle with the Artificial _Fly_ in Rivers disturbed
somewhat by Rain, or in a Cloudy day, the Wind blowing gently: If the
Wind be not so high, but you may well guide your Tackle, in plain Deeps
is to be found the best Fish, and best Sport: If small Wind breeze, in
swift streams is best Angling: Be sure to keep your _Fly_ in perpetual
slow motion; and observe that the Weather suit the Colour of your _Fly_,
as the light Colour'd in a Clear day, the Darkish in a dark, _&c._ As
likewise according to the Waters Complexions, have your Fly suitable.

2. Let your Line be twice as l
