Landing Net for Trout Fishing
A small landing net which may be slung over the shoulder by an elastic cord, or fitted with a catch so that it may be hung on a button or ring on the front of the coat, should always be carried; the angler who religiously packs a landing net will far less frequently tell the familiar story of the "whale" that "got away." To be sure, a landing net is more or less of a nuisance in the brush, but it should be considered as a very necessary evil. Late in the season fly-medicine or "dope" is a necessary item; frequently, as I have said elsewhere, it spells the difference between fly-fishing and mere fly-fighting. A canvas, khaki, or duxbak hunting coat because of its many pockets is handiest for trout fishing wear and very durable. The waterproof quality of the duxbak material is especially desirable.
