340 SALMON FISHING IN CANADA. 



SALMON AND SEA-TROUT FISHEKIES OF LOWER 

 CANADA. 



The following list includes the principal salmon rivers and sea- 

 trout streams which discharge into the Saint Laivi-ence and 

 Saguenay Rivers, along the north-east or Labrador coast, between 

 the province boimdary eastwards (Blanc Sablon), and the River 

 Jacques Cartier, above Quebec ; also those emptying upon the 

 south or eastern shore of the Saint Lawrence, and others flowing 

 easterly into the Bay of Chaleurs, — emphasising the CroiNTi 

 rivers, now open to public sale, and so mentioned in the accom- 

 panying advertisement. 



In addition there are many other bay, cove and inlet stations 

 along these extensive coasts, but which are disposable chiefly as 

 sedentary net-fishings for salmon and trout. 



Tlie immediate expiry of the lease of that vast territory 

 commonly known as ' The King's Posts," opens up to public 

 competition nmiierous valuable coast fisheries (such as Tadousac, 

 Seven Islands &c.), besides many famous salmon rivers and sea- 

 trout streams, and renders disposable certain commodious building 

 establishments long occupied as fm--trading posts,by the Honour- 

 able Hudson's Bay Company, at the mouths of the most important 

 of these fine rivers.
