OUANANICHE AND SEA-TROUT FISHING 135 



But little attention, comparatively speaking, has 

 been given to sea trout, principally because their 

 nature was not understood, and, in fact, but little has 

 been said or written in regard to them to arouse 

 interest. The lessees of the sea-trout streams on 

 Long Island are very enthusiastic over the fishing 

 they secure, as are those sportsmen who have sought 

 it in Canada. The Canadian rivers are now more 

 quickly and easily reached than formerly, and as the 

 fish are rapidly acquiring fame they are bound to 

 become much sought after by anglers. However, 

 sea-trout fishing is but fishing for brook trout under 

 different conditions, and amid varied surroundings. 

 They offer, however, two extra inducements they 

 are more plentiful and usually average larger.
