With fly-rod and camera . e salmon darted back into the pool, and neverbefore have I made my big reel fly as I did in wind-ing up that slack. I succeeded in getting it packed onthe spool again solidly and in even layers. Unquestionably, there are more salmon lost by foul-ing an unevenly, slovenly reeled line than from any othercause. Invariably, if a line is loose anywhere on the reel, the fish will cause it to overrun, and then throw a sortof half hitch on the reel, and this done the casting lineparts as if it were a cotton thread. I have seen so manyfish lost by this carelessness, and also by the line foulingin that infernal implement, the wheel turned by a crankinstead of by a handle in the revolving plate, that I amcautious in avoiding both fruitful sources of expletives anddespair.

Ye may give him the butt again, sir, said William, tis only a small fish, not over ten pounds, though hesmighty lively; hell soon tire now. I followed this advice and kept the fish moving, andsoon In acknowledgment of defeat he turned on his side o on the water.
