TEOUTING EXCURSION TO NICHOLAS COUNTY, 

 WEST VIRGINIA. 



LAST winter, having concluded to try the trout fish- 

 ing of the mountains of West Virginia, I had ample 

 time to lay in a siiffident supply of fi.shiug tackle, and, 

 asi8U8ua.liytlieca.se with amateurs, a large jiart of it 

 useless and cumlieisdiue. .June beiiiK' consiaered the 

 best month for trout fishing at that poiut, I left Cin- 

 cinnati May y-tth, airiving at Kanawiia Falls (oil C. & 

 t). R. K.)3iay yotfi ; spent a couple of days herci bass 

 iy-lisliiiig below tho lulls, catching about a dozen fish, 



the I 



•age ■ 



.'eight being about one pound. 1 have 

 your paper several times that stated that 

 trout could be caught at Kanawlia Falls, but frouv all 

 the iiiforntatiun I could gttther froui tlie natives and 

 peraonnl attempts, I came to the coticlusion that no 

 trout could bo oauglit u'ithiti a radius of lifteeu rnilea 

 of iliat place. Tho bas.s angler will be bacUy disap- 

 pointed, but it would be iiniiussible to ilcscribe. the bitter 

 di.sappoimmeiic of a tfuut an.:;ler \\-hen lie finds that 

 no trout have been cau.L,'iit there lor a.iuunlier Of years.

 me to Clierry Tree Bottom (sixty mdes distant), I con- 

 cluded to liire a h.i.j-.sc and make the journey without 

 any cornpaiiion, and after reducing uiv baugago to apair 

 of rubber boot.s, one trout tiasket hlled wiili tac-kln, one 

 pau- saddle-pockel-s, containing a change of clotliiue- and 

 two hahmg rod.s, I was prciporly ei|uipiied for the jour- 

 ney. A two days' ride oil horaeback through the niouu- 

 tainsby myself was rather iouelv and tiresome, and 

 about the only thing that kept ine asvake during the 

 middle of the day was the iVar of being tlirown from my 

 horse, as the roads ivere abominably steep and rocky ;

 the law iigaiiist traps could be enforced.
