At Princeton, Indian guides with canoes may be obtained, who are 

 perfectly familiar with every part of the surrounding country. There is a 

 small steamer by which the tourist may reach the outlet of Grand Lake 

 stream, and a daily stage which goes to the settlement at the foot of Grand 

 lake. Or, if he prefers, he can, with guides and canoe, cross to the waters 

 of the East branch, where he will find in the lakes and streams which 

 empty into it good trout and landlocked salmon fishing. In this wild 

 region there are also many deer and a few moose, while partridges are very 

 plentiful. 



At the village at Grand Lake stream there are good accommoda- 

 tions for sportsmen, and capital fishing and hunting may be obtained. 

 Grand lake is a large and handsome sheet of water, and it contains great 

 numbers of the beautiful and gamy landlocked salmon. Togue, or lake 

 trout, of large size are also taken, and in its tributary streams spotted trout 

 abound. A great number of other lakes and streams may be reached from 

 this point, and, if desired, a long tour by canoe and portages may be taken 

 to more distant points, even to the tributaries of the Penobscot and 

 Machias rivers. 



From the village at Grand Lake stream conveyance by carriage may 

 be had to a station on the Maine Central railroad, or a return can be made 

 to Calais, and the train taken at St. Stephens across the river for McAdam 

 junction on the C. P. R. R., from which point the train may be taken to 

 either St. John or Bangor. 



At Fredericton junction connection is made for Fredericton, from 

 which place some of the most desirable points in the Province may be 

 reached, and the sportsman has an almost unlimited field at his command. 

 Rivers and lakes, without number, are passed by the C. P. R. R. in its north- 

 ern passage through the wilderness, and all of them afford good fishing, 

 and the forests surrounding them contain moose and other large game in 

 abundance. 



The new railroad from Fredericton to Chatham has also opened up a 

 portion of the country that was before its construction quite difficult of 

 access, and it has given anglers some very choice localities in which their 

 recreation may be found. The number of streams and small lakes which 

 the road passes is very great, and they all contain spotted trout and 

 salmon. 



Chatham {via Newcastle) is also reached by the Intercolonial railway 

 from St. John. There are several points accessible from Chatham that 

 are well worth the attention of the angler. The most celebrated of these 

 is the Tabusintac river, twenty-two miles distant by stage. In this stream 

 are found astonishing numbers of sea trout of great size, and, in the 

 autumn, wild geese, brant and ducks assemble by thousands in the 

 marshes and bay at the mouth of the river.
