of the lake of the same name to Lake 
Rosseau, and Rosseau river, with its 
pretty falls, all feed Lake Rosseau, 
while Shadow river enters at the head 
and flows into Lake Rosseau. Two 
other charming streams for anglers are 
Moon and Muskosh rivers, which flow 
as outlets to the lakes, westward, into 
Georgian bay. Hardly a square yard 
of all these grand waters but yields de- 
lightful sport to the rod and reel. 
We will take Barrie, on the line of the 
railroad, as a starting point for the Mus- 
koka section, as the angler will natur- 
ally wish, as I did, to do 
some fishing in Lake Simcoe, 
celebrated for its beautiful 
scenery, and in some locali- 
ties for its excellent fishing 
for salmon, trout, and black 
bass. Should you do this, I 
would advise giving Kem- 
perfeldt bay a trial, where, at 
times, the lake (salmon) trout 
are in considerable quantities 
failing the salmon, black 
bass (small mouth) will not 
be wanting. Passing up this 


quickly take you to Graven- 
hurst, the headquarters of all 
sportsmen who visit the Musk- 
district. Within 
miles, not less than ten, the an- 
oka a few 
gler will find his most ardent 
hopes fulfilled, especially if he 
goes as far with his guide as 
Beaumaris, when he can make 
the big lake (Muskoka) his rest- 
ing point, or by pulling west- 
ward eight miles he will reach 
the Moon river, celebrated for 
its beauty and for mascalonge. 
On his return to Beaumaris, he may loi- 
ter awhile at Bala (also on Muskoka 
lake), where there is excellent all round 
fishing ; or he may take side trip from 
Bala to Clear, Blake, and Long lakes, 
distant only from a quarter to two 
miles, or to Muskosh, Little Current, 
and Coulter’s Current rivers, all within 
an eighth of a mile to about one and a 
half from Bala. In the waters named 
he will find black bass, pickerel, salmon 
trout, brook trout and mascalonge.

ist takes the steamers (fine ones) that
