The Godbout, I believe, is leased from

Fly fishing for salmon is the most difficult to 

 get of any for fresh- water game fish. Many of 

 the fish that are caught and reported as salmon 

 are nothing but togue, or trout, or salmon trout 

 that inhabit inland waters. The Atlantic salmon 

 is never caught in lakes; it is only caught in the 

 upper parts of rivers, which it enters for one ob- 

 ject, that is to spawn, and then it returns to the 

 sea. 



LANDLOCKED SALMON 



The landlocked salmon is found in many 

 waters of northern Maine, but it is caught mostly 

 in deep water, by trolling or still fishing, and very 

 rarely on the fly, but withal, it gives excellent 

 sport, and grows to a much larger size than the 

 famous Saguenay salmon. Splendid fishing for 



landlocked salmon is to be had in the 

 Maine 



numerous large lakes, the most well 



known among them being the Moosehead Lake, 

 perhaps the finest fishing ground in North Amer- 

 ica. Immense catches are made every season by a 

 large army of anglers, not only of landlocked 

 salmon, but of trout, and togue of unusual size.
