“No more the pink and luscious brandling worm Upon an angler's hook may be impaled...”
(continued from previous page)So now I'll learn to cast a fly
Cunningly made of feathers, skin and gauze,
Or spin a phantom- or a spoon -though I
Would much prefer to break these mouldy laws,
By using worms, or frogs, or even toads,
And catching fish by all the old-time modes.It's very hard to say where this will end;
Later, perhaps, some justice will decree
That artificial baits the laws offend.
In being not what they purport to be.
Thus coming under criminal offences -
Obtaining fish by means of false pretences.
