Early this spring a Canadian guide 
sent a request for me to tie some of 
these flies on larger hooks, Nos. 4 and 6 
to be used for bass and salmon (Ouana- 
niche). A similar request came later on 
from an expert who fished Oregon 
streams for steclhead and other large 
trout. In June I tried them on large 
eastern brook and brown trout with good 
results. So, together with friends who 
report well of them, I firmly believe they 
will prove steady killers in all sections 
of the country. They are not intended 
for surface fishing, as they have no 
wings except a pair of long hackle tips 
with very bushy hackle and long pea- 
cock-blue tail. 
THE GREAT TROUT OF 
THE ARCTIC 
{Continued from page 396) 
Doc landed the first one, a most bril- 
lant-colored trout of about four pounds. 
Shading from a rich variegated green 
on the back to a delicate salmon pink on 
the belly, generously sprinkled with 
spots of vivid red, and with fins of deep 
brown bordered with milk white ; a more 
beautiful fish would be hard to imagine. 
I conjured up a vision of my favorite 
brook trout taken from the wooded 
streams of northern New England and 
sought to compare it with this magnifi- 
cent fish before me — and representing 
the brook trout, I hoisted the white flag 
in graceful surrender. My Salvelimis 
fonfinalis was somber and dull by com- 
parison. This resplendent beauty in 
actuality before me was the most bril- 
liant of its kind I had ever seen. In 
many w^ays it resembled the Dolly Var- 
den, of which I assume it to be a sub- 
species, but in the icy seclusion of this 
swift northern stream it has developed 
into a trout that is frankly the peer of 
the eight varieties I have had the privi- 
lege to know. Doc, whose knowledge 
of trout is great, assured me that it was 
a new species and called Arctic trout by 
fishermen generally. 
Doc explained that two or three years 
before, they had sent a photo of one of 
these trout to a large sporting goods 
house in the East, along with a care- 
fully-written description. After con- 
siderable time had elapsed they received 
a letter stating that this house had no 
knowledge regarding such a fish and 
that in all probability it was a freak. 
T^OWN the stream we went, wading 
^ through chilly waters which one 
felt even through the rubber boots and 
woolen socks. Snow-filled ravines to 
our right and left each supplied their 
rill of frigid water to the main stream. 
It is no wonder that these fish proved 
themselves to be steel springs of energy 
and of a flavor that beggars description ! 
My flies seemed not to tempt these 
vermillion-spotted trout, but strikes from 
the largest grayling I have ever seen 
were numerous. These graylings were

The country traversed by the System of the Reid Newfoundland Company, Ltd., is exceedingly rich in 
all kinds of Fish and Game. All along the route of the Railway are streams famous for their Salmon and 
Trout fishing, also Caribou barrens. Americans who have been fishing and hunting in Newfoundland 
say there is no other country in the world in which so good fishing and hunting can be secured and with 
such ease as in Newfoundland. Information, together with illustrated Booklet and Folder, cheerfully
