INTRODUCTION. 
 
 i 
 
 The favor with which the previous editions of the Guide to the 
 Fishing and Hunting Resorts on thi' line was received has prompted 
 the manjigeuient of the Grand Trunk Railway to re-issue the work in a 
 more extended form, containing new and interesting particulars, covering 
 the entire territory served by its lines and connecting railro<ids and 
 steamers. The pi m of the Guide may be described as a condensation 
 of reports received from the Company's agents who were asked to furnish 
 the names of hotels in their vicinity and their charges, als* the cost of 
 livery ; the nearest lavorable fishing resorts :md their distance ; fish to 
 be obtsiined, and varieties most pleiitii^)! ; best months; baits used; 
 names of guides imd charges, and coj>t ofb >at hire. For hunting — the 
 best grounds and distance ; game most ubundant ; best months ; guides 
 and their charges ; whether dogs are obtainable, and a general 'lescrip- 
 tion of the country. From these the best reports wero selected and are 
 printed in a brief form in the order of the questions as above stated. 
 Although fubject to change in the course of the season, the inf irmation 
 may be generally :iccepted as reliable, and it is hoped will be a useful 
 assistance to sportsmen or tourists in laying out a plan for t'^eir summer 
 tour. 
 
 We have included data of various poir^ts of interest on the Northern 
 and North Western Hailway, now operat«jd by the Gand Trunk Rail- 
 way as a division of its extensive system. The acquisition of this line 
 adds an interesting territory which his long been known as a favorite 
 district for camping out, fishing .ind shooting. We refer partieulaiiy 
 to tlie Muskoka Lakes, Parry Sound Region and Georgian Bay. It is 
 intended to improve the train service to th^ se northern pomts, make 
 closer connections with trains from other parts of the line, and aflford, in 
 all ways, increased facilities for visiting them. In these efforts the 
 railway company has received considerable assistance from the various 
 steamer lines plying on the lakes, who also are offering additional service 
 and have co-operated in the preparation of a series of tours at low fares, 
 with the object of opening to the travelling public this picturesque and 
 health-giving country. 'JMie Muskoka Lukes .ire a beautiful range of 
 waters, adjoining one another for a distance of about 50 miles. They 
 are situated at an altitude of 750 feet above the level of Lake Ontario, 
 and are especially commended for the abutidancc of animal and veget- 
 able life to be found in their neighborhood, whilst the waters are filled 
 with the choicest varieties of the fiuny tribes. The steamers of the 
 
 > " 
 
Muskoka and Georgian Bay Navipcjition Company make daily trips 
 from Gravenhurst, and passentrcrs h.ive tlie privil jr^^otstoppinir over or 
 going all around the lakes, according to tlieir inelin.ition. The same 
 company's steamers also leave Midland and Penctang for Parry Sound, 
 and the SJiil through the wonderful Archipelago of over twenty-seven 
 thousand islands, of all conceivable sizes and shapes, is one wliicli will 
 not be easily forgotten, whilst the enthusiastic sportsman can safely be 
 promised nmple opportunities for the use of his roil or gui<. An inter- 
 resting work entitled ''Guide to Muskoka Lakes," containing full par- 
 ticulars of the resources of tliis interesting reiiion will bo Ibrwai'dcd on 
 application to J. A. Link, Secretary Muskoka & Georgian F ;y Navi- 
 gation Company, Gravenhurst, Ont. 
 
 The Rangeley ]-akes, in the State of Maine, are also referred to in 
 the following pages, and are especially recommended to residents in the 
 New England States. An interesting dt'scription of them with full 
 particulars as to the mode of transportation, best routes, and fares has 
 been written by Capt. A. J. Farrar, and intemling visitors will do well 
 to obtain a copy of his book entitled "Androscoggin L:ikes Illustrated," 
 published by the Androscoggin Lakes Transportation Co. at Boston. 
 
 "Where Nature has provided so bountifully it is difficult to particu- 
 larize, and we can therefore only make a passing allusion to the salmon 
 fisheries of the Lower Provinces of Canada, which have a world-wide 
 celebrity ; the magnificent fishin<r and scenery of the River St. Lawrence 
 and the Thousand Islands, well-known and hiizhly appreciated re-orts of 
 tourists from all parts of the continent, together with innumerable towns 
 and favorite grounds in the vicinity of those great inland seas — Lakes 
 Ontario, Erie, and Huron, — which (as will' be seen by a, glance at the 
 map on the back of this book) arc reached at many points by the,4nain 
 lines and branches of the Grand Trunk Railway.

 Rangeley Lakes ('-cached via Bryant's Pond, Bethel and Berlin Falls,, 
 and thence by stage). 
 
 Fishing. —''^'he^e 1. are 5 in nnmi'er,and (.-elebratcd for the quantity and 
 size of their trout. The best fishing grounds are reached from Middle Dam 
 Camp on L. Wekkennebaeook ; fron: Upper Dam Camp on L. Molechunk- 
 amunk and fro/n Bemis Camps and Mooseluckmaguntic House; best 
 
months — May, June and Sept. ; a few trout can always be taken in Julv, 
 increasing in August ; art. tiles are mainly used, but surface and deep troll- 
 ing with the live minnow are effective. The largest genuine brook trout 
 {salmo fontinalis) in the world are caught in these waters. Guides can be 
 engaged at any of the above-named places at $2.50 p. d. and board. 
 
 [The beautiful lakes and mountains of the Rangeley lose none of their 
 attractiveness, never mind how often they are visited, and the fishing in 
 these waters continues to afford sport to a greatly increased number of 
 sportsmen ; there has been a falling off in the number of the very large fish, 
 while the quantity of the small ones, say from a half to three pounds, con- 
 tinues about the same, indeed more are caught now than ever before. In 
 addition to trout there is a fair quantity of land-locked salmon ; hardly a 
 day passes without one or two being brought mto camp weighing on an 
 average about foi\r pounds, while much larger ones are often seen and 
 taken, and we do not think the day is far distant when there will be a plen- 
 tiful supply of this vaHety.] 
 
 Hunting,— Game, large and Si.^all of all descriptions can be obtained in 
 abundance daring their season. For further description of the Rangeley's

 ja)EFERRING to the above card we would say that we make a specialty of 
 '\ outfitting Camping and Hunting Clubs. Estimates given for all 
 kinds of Camping Utensils and Tents. Our many years' experience in 
 this particular business well fits us for thoroughly and carefully filling all orders 
 given us, and we can also be of material assistance in parties camping for the 
 first time. We beg to say to the Clubs residing in East and West Penn- 
 sylvania and Ohio who intend visiting our beautiful Northern Lakes and 
 Rivers this season, that we are particularly well situated to supply their wants, 
 being only forty-five miles from the border and in a direct line with those lovely 
 health-giving resorts. By purchasing your supplies from us you avoid all 
 
 the vexations and duties of the Custom House, heavy Freights, 
 
 etc., together with other inconveniences which go to make excursions of this 
 ki"d more of an' annoy .tnce than a pleasure. If you send your order ahead 
 we can have it carefully packed, strapped and checked at the station on your 
 arrival, which will enable you to go straight through without the trouble of staying 
 over here to select your goods. We will l^e pleased at any time to furnish 
 prices, and also give any information about this part of the country not mentioned 
 in this Guide. 
 
 We might add that our prices for Groceries, etc., are about the same as in 
 your own country, independent of freight and duty. We have 
 pleasure in referring you to the Nypano, Metropolitan Solid Comfort, 
 Pittsburgh Rod and Gun Glub.«» and others whom we have had the 
 pleasure of supplying for some years. 
 
 Yours very truly,

 To Spoutsmrn — The region now opened up by this railway affords, probably » 
 the best sporting ground in America. In all the lakes and rivers, innumerable, 
 touched by the road, fish of all kinds abound. Fork-tailed trout have been 
 caught weighing up to thirty-two pounds, and speckled trout weighing eight 
 pounds. Bass, Dore, Whitefish, Pike and Perch are also abundant, and of very

 large size. But the finest fish of all is the renowned land-locked salmon of Lake 
 Rt. John, called by the Indians "Ouinaniche," ofthr Fresh Water Salmon. 
 This beautiful fish, which resembles the salmon in every respect, weighs from 
 four to fourteen pounds. It is said by sportsmen to be quite as gamey as the 
 salmon, taking the salmon fly greedily, and is believed to exist only in Lake St. 
 John. It is to be found in nil narts of that lake, but princioally in the River 
 Peribonca, and at the Granrl Disriinrge. The trout of Lake Edward are of very 
 fine quality, very large, and having a dark red flesh which makes them a delicious 
 fish for the table-

 Thousands of devotees of rod and reel are uiiawnre of the splei did fishing 
 which c\n be had in the r-^gio h n-^rih of Lake Ontario and east of Georgian Bay, 
 everywhere travfirsod by the Grvnd Trunk Railway of Canada. Simcoe, Oouclii- 
 ching, Muskoka, Ah-mic, Storey, Nipissing and many other lakes lie upon this route, 
 each noted for snort, first-class both as regards abundance and variety of fish in 
 the streams. The Severn, Muskoka, .Muganetawan, Frencli, and other rivers 
 drain an irn-n'^nse territory, and as thn country is only partially cleared and set- 
 tled, every reach of water is alive with br()ok trout, white bass, pike, perch, nins- 
 calonge and other kinds are found in great plenty. Cliarges at hotels and for 
 guides are cheap, and attention is given to spcirtsmen. The writer of this, in a 
 single day, cui^ht in tha Mi? lU'tv vii River, the last week in July this year 
 ninety-seven trout in a single afterioon, the largest of which tipped the scales at 
 2\ pounds. There were then no bla'^k flies or moscpiitoes, and poisonous sntikes 
 are unknown. Partridges and quail arealraost as thick as blackbird.-^ in aswarap, 
 while deer and bear abound, and be iver, fo.^, and otlier fur-bearing animals are 
 plenty. 
 
 The Grand Trunk railway fur.iishes every accommodation to tliose sportsmen 
 who pass over it. Conductors and trainmen are diligent and obliging, and 
 tak»n all in all, a trip to the portion of Canada referred to can bedepended upon 
 to furnish solid enjoymsnt for each day of twenty-four hours. The heat of sum- 
 mer has no terrors when, as there, frost killed potato vines to the groimd on the 
 13th of July? — The American Angler.
