The Erie and The Sportsman 



<[£ A double-track short cut to fishing delights. A short 

 run on the most picturesque railroad of the East to 

 Sportsmen's Paradise. 



C[ The best fresh-water fishing akin to the Metropolitan 

 District is reached by ERIE lines. These span from 

 Manhattan into the fastnesses of Orange and Sullivan 

 counties, New York, and Pike and Wayne counties, 

 Pennsylvania. ERIE expresses carry you quickly 

 from the city to the half-hidden delights of coursing 

 rivers, mountain brooks and lakes. 



€L Here are a few ERIE treats : 



Greenwood Lghg, forty-five miles from the City Hall* 

 New York, is the abiding place of Black Bass and Pickerel 

 throughout the season. 



€L Glenmere Lake, three miles from Chester, N. Y., and 

 fifty-six miles from New York City, has fine Pickerel fishing 

 in May and June. The Black Bass is biting there the 

 whole season long. 



€£ Lake Mombasha, Round Lake and Long Lake; a 



trio clustered about Monroe, N. Y., fifty miles from the city, 

 are densely populated with Black Bass and Pickerel. 



€L The whole course of the kingly Delaware from Deposit, 

 Long Eddy and including Shohola, Lackawaxen, Narrows- 

 burg, Cochecton, Callicoon, Pond Eddy, Lordville and Han- 

 cock, is the raceway of the Black Bass, who finds his home 

 in the twistings of the river. 



H Between these and within stalking distance of every ERIE 

 station in this territory, the Brook Trout, speckled beauty 

 of the lot, awaits the fisherman.
