Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Fishing Holidays
The fly in question was a claret, tied by Mr. T. Courtney of Killarney, one of the three patterns which, speaking for myself, I think indispensable. The second is the hare's - ear, and this fly, although so well known, is very hard to come by in shops. It Should be tied on a No. 7 or No. 8 hook, being chiefly of use in low water, and should be bushy and striped with gold tinsel. In a very high flood a fly of the same type, but with a reddish tinge through the hare's - ear. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
