SALMON-FISHING ON THE 

 GRAND CASCAPEDIA 



HAVE been asked so many times to 

 write my experience as regards salmon- 

 fishing that perhaps these few lines 

 may be of benefit to friends who are 

 learning the grand art, and of some interest to 

 those who are already accomplished in it for an 

 art it surely is. 



I advise all who intend taking up salmon-fishing 

 to read Dr. Weir Mitchell's book, " When All the 

 Woods Are Green." It is a delightful story, and 

 has a chapter or two on salmon-killing. But as 

 all of us may not have a companion so charming 

 on our fishing trips as the hero of this book, we 

 will content ourselves here with the killing of the 

 fish. The part of the book which appeals to me 

 most strongly is the dedication : 



THE FRIEND OF MANY YEARS, 

 THE COMPANION OF MANY SUMMERS. 



Who but a lover of nature and a keen sportsman 

 would have thought of the few words so lovingly
