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 New- 
foundland say there is no other country in the world in which so good &hing and hunting can 
be secured and with such ease as in Newfoundland. Information, together with illustrated

I and they began fishing in the deep wa- 
ter near by. “The stiller we keep, the 
I better, as we are in the open here,” 
I observed Mr. Adams, “as Matt says, they 
scare easily sometimes.” “I told you the 
big ones was here,” said Matt, as his 
float went under with a rush and the 
whip-like pole went double and the line 
cut the water around the boat. “G’mme 
the net. But suddenly the pole went 
straight again and float and hook sprang 
up in the air. “Gosh a’mighty, he’s 
gone,” said the boy, “he’s an’ old buster 
and he examined the hook critically as 
if to find some fault there. With hook 
again in the water, if a close watch 
had been made on his movements, it 
would have been seen that he never per- 
mitted his rig to be completely at rest; 
just a slight movement with tip of rod 
was kept up and it was not long before 
“there she goes again” was heard and 
again the pole was double and an ex- 
cited boy was swinging first one way 
then another, keeping a taut line on the 
hooked fish. “Git the net,” he said and 
for the first time their improvised net 
was brought into use and, as Mr. Wood- 
hull said, it worked like a charm. 
Matt added, “good as a boughten one.” 
The perch was a beauty, at least one 
and a half pounds in weight and beauti- 
fully marked. Matt was triumphant. 
“As big as ever I catched,” he said. In 
the confusion and admiration of the fish, 
other tackle was for a moment forgot- 
ten and of a sudden Mr. Woodhull’s reel 
screeched and the light rod went over- 
board with a rush but was caught just. 
as the butt struck the w’ater, and such 
a battle as that little rod had. Skillful 
handling, however, saved the day and the 
fighting fish was brought to the net, a 
mate for Matt’s. “Now,” said the lat- 
ter, “don’t thrash ’round in the boat 
none and we’ll get some.” It was a 
great catch of beautiful fish they made 
that day and one long remembered by the 
three and often talked over. A few 
large yellow perch were taken just be- 
fore dusk as they moved away from 
where they had taken the white ones. 
The first being taken by Mr. Woodhull 
who was trolling his bait behind the 
boat. They halted and fished the 
grounds over. The strike could be told 
easily as being slower, but the fighting 
quality was equal to the one put up by 
their silvery cousins. Mr. Woodhull soon 
gave up the use of worms and used min- 
nows, keeping his end of the boat well 
represented. 
Just as they were quitting, in fact 
both Mr. Adams and Matt had their 
tackle put up, Mr. Woodhull received 
a strike which sent a thrill through them 
all, the line cutting the water at all 
angles and with a speed that was phen- 
omenal. The pliant pole was doubled 
sidewise and all shapes, as Matt said. 
Then a pickerel of at least five pounds 
leaped into the air and was off like a 
] flash. “Gosh a’mighty what a pike,’' 
yelled Matt, “I knowed the’s big ones 
j here, pity you had on a little hook; I 
I seen a man catch one right over there 
one day, weighed six pounds and a half. 
Applegate his name was; we called him 
gentleman John. He was alius dressed 
up like a dude. I’ve seen him fishin' 
in the rain with a plug hat on. Say,
