THE LAURENTIDES PARK 



two species of Alpine charr have been 

 identified, while the tourilli is also 

 found. Here, then, is diversion for 

 every man who can throw a fly, no 

 other fishing is allowed, nor is there 

 any reason why it should not endure in 

 ceternum. The only quarrel that the 

 fisherman is likely to have with the 

 sport is that his fish may come too easily. 

 It is no extraordinary feat to take five 

 or six dozen trout in an hour, but it is 

 to be hoped that a very few experiences 

 of this kind will satisfy. When it comes 

 to be a question of three and four 

 pounders, with reasonably light tackle, 

 the angler has a very pretty struggle on 

 his hands for ten minutes or longer, and 

 will carry away a picture of taut line 

 and singing reel, of swirling brown 

 water and gray rocks set in solemn 

 green and roofed with blue and white, 

 which he may summon back at will to 

 muse over when the winter fire burns.
