Curious Bait for Pike. 
In the Gatineau the pike-percli often rises 
to the artificial fly. Many of the fishermen 
cannot be persuaded that the pike-perch is a 
distinct species, but insist that it is a cross 
between a black bass and a pike. It must be 
admitted that this is not a bad attempt to 
catch a family resemblance, solely from ex¬ 
ternal appearance,'and one enthusiastic sports¬ 
man of the district was much delighted after 
catching his first specimen of the fish, to 
make the discovery that its characteristic and 
lovely eye, like a good opal, has the power of 
double refraction. In the Ottawa and St. 
Lawrence, of course, the pike-perch or dore is 
exceedingly plentiful,, and quite a well-known 
species with the people living on or near the 
banks of those rivers.
