38 BUCKINGHAMSHIRE. CAMBRIDGESHIRE. 



Kennet and the Loddon, and some good fishing may be 

 had in most parts of all of them, fine trout being taken 

 especially near Newbery, Speenham Lands, and Hun- 

 gerford in the Kennet. 



III. BUCKINGHAMSHIRE. 



THE Ouse, which rises in Oxfordshire, and almost 

 completely surrounds the town of Buckingham, flows 

 onward to Bedford, Huntingdon, and Ely, and falls 

 into the sea at Lynn, is well stored with pike, jack, 

 perch, &c. The Colne, which rises in Hertfordshire, 

 and divides Middlesex from Buckinghamshire, falling 

 into the Thames at Staines, is deservedly a favourite 

 river with anglers. It has an abundance of jack, trout, 

 perch, chub, roach, dace, eels, &c. The Thames, which 

 flows through the south-western portion of the county, 

 and the Wick, which proceeds from the interior, and 

 flows through Lord Carrington's grounds, near High 

 Wycombe, produce a variety of good fish, including 

 fine trout. 



IV. CAMBRIDGESHIRE. 



THE Cam, which runs by the town of Cambridge, to 

 which it gives its name, forms a junction with the Ouse 

 at Stretham, and under the latter name flows onward 

 to Downham, in Norfolk, affords, in various parts, 

 some fine fishing. Both above and below Cambridge, 

 in particular, there is good trolling for pike, and angling 

 for perch, pike, carp, &c. There are also some fine 

 lakes famous for their tench.
