 The images appearing hore pre the best quality 
 possible considering the condition and legibility 
 of the original copy and in keeping with the 
 filming contract specifications. 
 
 Original copies in printed paper covers are filmed 
 beginning with the front cover and ending on 
 the last page with a printed or illustrated impres- 
 sion, or the back cover when appropriate. All 
 other original copies are filmed beginning on the 
 first page with a printed or illustrated impres- 
 sion, and ending on the last page with a printed 
 or illustrated impression. 
 
 The last recorded frame on each microfiche 
 shall contain the symbol --♦- (meaning "CON- 
 TINUED "). or the symboS V (meaning "END"), 
 whichever applies. 
 
 Maps, plates, charts, etc., may be filmed at 
 different reduction ratios. Those too large to be 
 entirely included in one exposure are filmed 
 beginning in the upper left hand corner, left to 
 right and top to bottom, as many frames as 
 required. The following diagrams illustrate the 
 method:

 premidre page qui comporte une empreinte 
 d'impression ou d'illustration et en terminant par

 In addiiion to the above about 35 Kelts (an unusuul number) were 
 caught d'.iring the first few days fishing, — most of which (and when circum- 
 stances permitted^ were returned to the water . Also, about 250 Sea Trout 
 were taken while fis^bing fur Salmon, of an average weight of 2| to 3 lbs. ; 
 and 7 Grilse. 
 
 In consequence of frequent and unusual heavv rair. ., the River, during 
 the whole time, continued too high for good fishing, and in consequence a 
 number of the b?st Pools were tio flooded an to prevent the fish from lying 
 therein, or at letst taking the Fly as freely ae in former seasons.

 On arriving at the river it was found to be unusually low, and in conse- 
 quence there was no fishing in the lower pools, which in ordinary sca?on^ 
 give the best sport at the beginning. During tlw whole tiuie of fis]iiii<r only 
 a few light shower." fell, so that the water continued to fall steu.lilv. and by 
 w\e middle of July it had become lower than ever before known tu any ot 
 those now acquainted with the river. No Kilt were caught this .^eanon.

 The water in tlie river was found very low on the arrival of the party, 
 iiiitl voniainerl so during all the time they were there, which was considered 
 the rcisjon why the salmon did not take as well as usual.

 July 9.— Caught by Mark Molson and hi.s son,

 C; ught shortly after by P. Macni*ugh- 
 
 ton and son, Quebec U " *"' 
 
 (i 
 
The River poDBouT. 
 
 Contributed by one of ita now oldest Sahnoit Fishers, 
 
 Again on the God bout's banks we've iiu-t 
 With trusty rod in hand, 
 And envy not the greatest Prince 
 Who reigns o'er happiest land. 
 
 For liere trom the world's cares we're free 
 Beneath a genial sky, 
 While luider the rippling waters bright 
 The silvery salmon lie. 
 
 Ready to test the utmost skill 
 
 Of the lover of angling art, 
 
 And give to the startled nerves a thrill 
 
 That pulses from the heart. 
 
 Then come with me to the " Upper Pool," 
 Well known on thy glorious stream, 
 And prove for thyself, if doubter thou art, 
 That its treasures are not a dream. 
 
 And take thv stand on the " Gravel Sank," 
 Where the water glides swiftly by, 
 And over its surface lightly cast 
 The tempting " Fairy Fly." 
 
 It touches the water, — a moment floats, — 
 Then quickly disappears ; 
 With a magic tug ! and the line runs out ! 
 Nuw Piscator comes thy fears ! 
 
 Still hope prevails o'er every fear 
 That the victory will be thine. 
 Should no mishap occur in the fight 
 To Itreak thy fragile line. 
 
 ]Jut a reaily hand and watchful eye 
 Alone will succi ss command. 
 And bring the gallant, tho' conqnerc' llsh, 
 At last to tho Gaffman's hand. 
 
 Oft when "Salmo Sal.ir ' " seized the lure, 
 Qui(;kly down in the water he goes ; 
 But soon discovering the mistake he's made. 
 He tii2;s and shakes his nose. 
 
I «rj' 
 
 16 
 
 But all ill vain-— so he angry gets 
 Ami ix-rliaps, as a lish may— swears 
 But be that as it may, he soon dai^hes otl', 
 And away through the water tears. 
 
 The line now runs out with lightning speed,— 
 The reel gives its music sweet ; 
 But dependence on these alone won't do, 
 So be ready with nimble feet . 
 
 Fur down tlie stream he may take a ru.sh. 
 In his madness to break away ; 
 When thou must be ready to follow him up, 
 Or assuredly lose the day. 
 
 Again, in his rage, to clear the houk, 
 With a spring he will dait in the air; 
 And his frantic bounds again repeat, 
 Which will claim thy anxious care. 
 
 Then tliou must be ready with courtier's ease 
 His vaulting feats to greet, — 
 Quickly lower your rod and make your bow, 
 Or misfortune you'll surely meet. 
 
 Your line will be snapped like a spider's web, 
 When off goes the hoped-for prize ; 
 But then too late, you may stamp and rave 
 Who such acts polite despise. 
 
 At last the dubious fight is o'er, — 
 The battle's been fought and won ; 
 And the coveted prize lies safe ashore, 
 A beauty ! — a twenty-pounder good! 
 Hurra ! a prettier Salmon sure 
 Was ne'er seen beneath the sun !
