For easy reference two tables of flies are given. One, in which are set down the flies in the order in which they may generally be fished through the season, with the approximate times of their use, and the other, with the flies tabled under the various trout fishing months.
It remains only to add, that the taking fly should be fished as point, i.e., the fly farthest from the angler.
