PAGE TWO (IMHD Brunei Aran 41WJCM*v Ted Trueblood has come up with an interesting theory on flies and leaders. In the past the development of terminal tackle has been based largely upon the assumption that trout don't see particularly well. IWe use light leaders in hopes that they won’t? be seen and we tie on bright flies to make sure they will be. Now I doubt that the reasoning behind this is sound. (All of us have seen trout rising to midges—tiny gray flies so small they become invisible to man at a distance of a few feet—yet the trout can see them. Trueblood was positive that its im possible to use a leader so fine that trout can’t see it. 'He was wondering what to do with this idea when a friend remarked: “Trout aren't afraid of moss. Tftey’re used to it . . . Pve been dyeing my leader the cplor of moss and it seems to work.” * So he bought some ordinary house hold dye in brown and green and dyed his nylon leaders. He’s been using them for three years and he’s been taking plenty of trout. He sel-_ dom uses a leader finer than 2x. Assuming that the trout do have incredibly keen eyesight (which the success of the moss-dyed leaders seem ed to confirm) the nest step was to' apply the same reasoning to flies— especially wet flies which run to more vivid colors. .'Wien we fail to get strikes, is it because the trout don’t see our flies or because they see them hard to see? A distinct, boldly patterned fly such as a Coachman or a Parmacheene Belle have been poor catchers of trout in waters that are heavily fished. On the other hand, dull-colored, indif ferent-looking flies such as the March Brown and Cahill usually do well. They are hard for the trout to see. Yet, being suggestive of food, they are taken into their mouths to taste PROVE IT TO YOURSELF! IWfufttpooC] I -gives you MORE M I -costs you LESS V every Washday!

HOW TO WASH BLANKETS Wash bindings of blankets first by brushing or sponging them with suds, on a table, before wetting the entire blanket. Wadi one blanket at a time. Washing time should be from two to three minutes. Never drain off dirty water while the blanket is still in the i washer. Support it gently with your < hands while lifting it out of the wa- i ter. Rinse thoroughly in lukewarm water, wringing or spinning between each rinsing. Be sure the wringer is : adjusted loosely. To dry, fold blanket from binding to ' binding. Hang in the shade over two i parallel clothes lines. > When dry, brush blanket gently with a soft brush ,to*raise the nap. Press : only the bindings, using a moderately ' and feel. So Truefblood tried flies in various shades of blue, gray, tan, cream, huff and brown. Exact imitation iwas un important in testing his theory. The purpose of flies of this type was merely to suggest food.
