To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If the distance is increased they are apt to become ravelled with the main line, and occasion the angler con- siderable loss of time. The distance between the flies should be from twenty inches to two feet. If it is greater in rough water, the angler may pass over a trout without its seeing any of them, and there is nothing in the sight of two flies at a time calculated to alarm a trout. Some works, when giving instructions for making a fly-cast, recommend that the first dropper should depend f...rom the main line about three inches, the second, five, and so on, always increasing the dis- tance when a fly is added. Their object, if we un- derstand it aright, being, that in fishing, the flies are to be drawn along the water, so that the main line does not touch it at all, but merely the flies. This discloses a very erroneous method of fly-fishing. No angler with any pretensions to skill ever allows his flies, or even his line, for yards above them, to create a disturbance in the water, nothing being more calculated to alarm a trout than seeing flies or line rippling the surface, which the flies must do 94 FLIES, FLY-DRESSING, ETC.
