Jiayfield Cotinti/— 



Bayjield is situated behind the Apostle Islands, which land-lock a coast of 

 over fifty miles, where boating in small boats is a matter of entire safety, and 

 with the incomparable healthfulness ot climate, pure water, and delicious fish of 

 various kinds combine in affording attractions tnat can only be appreciated by 

 those enjoying them. The special feature among the attractions of Bayfield is 

 the numerous trout streams and the trout fishing along the coast in the vicinity. 

 There are between twenty-five and fifty streams running into the lake within the 

 limits of the coast protected by the islands, which seem to possess exhaustless 

 numbers of brook trout, and in addition the fishing along the coast for the whole 

 distance (about fifty miles) is unexcelled. The " rock fishing," as this coast fish- 

 ing is termed, affords fine sport for the angler. These streams admit of fine boat- 

 fishing near their mouths, and splendid stream-fishing farther up. Very large 

 trout are taken in these waters, many weighing three and a half and four pounds. 

 Deer hunting affords e.xcellent sport in the neighboring forests. 



Boats for Bayfield leave almost daily from Buffalo, Cleveland, Detroit, and 

 Chicago, also from Duluth, eighty miles distant, reached by rail via St. Paul.
