consequent demand for water

the metropolis is continually tend-

lengths of the South country
chalkstreams to such an extent
that many are unwilling and
more unable to pay the exorbitant
rentals Purchase Benazepril asked by the fortunate
owners of such property. Some
have Benazepril And Amlodipine sought for and found what
they require in Normandy or
other French provinces ; some
have discovered in Germany,
Belgium, Austria, or other pans
of the Continent rivers on which
they can get their sport at a
reasonable figure. Many, how-
ever, misled by specious adver-
tisements or inspired paragraphs
in the leading sporting papers,
have travelled far to find bad
accommodation, inferior fare, and
streams in which the Amlodipine And Benazepril 4X)achers
have for years worked their wicked
will and reduced the stock of
trout and grayling to a minimum.
It has often been suggested
that there must be streams in
comparatively remote parts of
the United Kingdom where fair
dry-fly fishing and comfortable
quarters are obtainable at a
moderate cost, and where, al-
though perhaps not up to the Benazepril Online
Hampshire standard, yet trout of
something above hernng size can
be taken in sufficient numbers to
content the angler who is not
actuated solely by the desire of
cutting records and achieving
success beyond the expectations
of the ordinary sportsman.
In the county of Derbyshire
and the adjoining ones of Staflbrd-
shire and Cheshire, the Dove,
Many fold, Wye, Derwent, and
probably other streams hold a
fair stock of both trout and gray-
ling. By the courtesy of many
owners and lessees of fisheries I
have had the opportunity of in-
specting and trying the greater
portion of the Wye during the
last summer, and have thought
that it might be of use to my
brother anglers to give them the
benefit of the experience thus
gained. I take this opportunity
of tendering my warmest thanks
to those who have so promptly
and so kindly given me permission
to visit their waters, and ask them
to accept my criticism, which in
some instances may seem hard
or unfavourable, in the spirit in
which it is offered, viz., that of
striving Buy Benazepril Online to indicate how the char-
acter and consequent value of the
fishing can be enhanced.
The sources of the Wye are
two small streams emerging from
the limestone rocks at the Eastern
extremity of Buxton. Benazepril Hctz These
streams unite in the public gardens
of that charming health resort;
and, afte^ flowing underground
through a Benazepril Mg portion of the town,
the river runs nearly parallel with
the course of the Duke's Drive
through Benazepril 20mg Ashwood Dale, Miller's
Dale, Monsal Dale, and Ashford
to Bakewell, and thence past
Haddon Hall to Rowsley, where
in the grounds of the Peacock
Hotel it joins the Derwent.
The upper part extending from
Buxton downwards for nearly Benazepril 10 Mg
four miles can be fished by day,
or season tickets procurable in
Buxton. On tlie lowest length
from Bakewell Bridge to Rowsley

day tickets for this water. The
whole of* the inter veriing portion
of the river is in private hands,
and permission to fish is usually
only accorded by the lessees to
their personal friends.
The Wye is a fairly rapid
stream, twisting and winding in
its course, alternately careering,
along stony shallows and pouring
over miniature falls into sluggish
pools, generally culminating in
deep eddying holes on the concave
side of the sharp turn. The
shallows are paved with rough
stones and boulders, which are
often moved by the winter floods
and washed Benazepril Hydrochloride down until their
course is checked by massive
rocks, so that the bed of the
river is ever changing in char-
acter. Hence it is not surprising
that the prominent feature of the
chalk streams, the luxuriant
growth of weeds, is absent. The
deeper reaches contain consider-
able deposits of gritty mud, the
detritus of the stones mixed with
gravel, sand, and decomposed
vegetable matter; and at each
successive flood a portion of this
mud is carried down Benazepril 5 Mg the river to
be replaced in the process of time
by a fresh stratum.
It must be remembered, too,
that it Order Benazepril Online is not a chalk stream, i.e.,
one of which the springs, feeding
it, filter up through beds of chalk,
but a river flowing out Benazepril 20 Mg of the
mountain limestone, and passing
in many parts between lofty
masses of the rock, from the faces Benazepril 20
of which there is constant erosion
caused by the action of the water

which are held in suspension Benazepril Amlodipine
throughout the rapid portions Amlodipine Benazepril of
the stream. The water, there-
fore, as compared with that Order Benazepril of a
gin-clear stream, like the Test,
is always more or less turbid,
and, immediately after heavy
rain is of a milky description from
the road washings or other cal-
careous matter introduced; and,
later, is stained of the muddy
brown colour usually described
by fishermen as ** pea-soup,"
from the peat, soil, and other
decomposed, or semi -decomposed
vegetable products carried into it
by the flood.
The crustaceans and molluscs
which constitute so important a
portion of the nutriment of the
fish are plentiful in most parts of
the river, and in Benazepril 10mg respect to the
insects, the deficiency of sub-
aqueous vegetation points to a
scarcity of those which, in their
larval forms, frequent the weeds.
Thus, although of the Ephemer-
idse the various duns and spinners
of the genera Baetis, Centrop-
tilum and Ephemerella, such as
the Olive Duns, Iron Blue Duns,
Pale Watery Dims, and Blue
Winged Olives are present in
numbers suflicient to induce the
fish to rise at them freely at times ;
yet the hatches are sparse as
compared with those of the Hamp-
shire streams. On the other hand,
the March Brown Buy Cheap Benazepril and Yellow
May Dun, of which the larvae are
found in rapid water on the under
side of the stones, are said to be
prevalent, Buy Benazepril and the Mayfly, which
in the immature state inhabits
gritty mud, is very abundant, and
generally gives the fisherman the
best sport of the season.
