Capt. Ryan, of Taupo, at short notice, and 
arranges to call in with his steamer bringif 
supplies. . . , 
I may mention that it is only this season th 
the trout have begun to take the artificial f 
and the fame of the sport being freely spre 
I am afraid in the future there will be too mu 
of a rush for Lake Taupo, which may lead 
a good deal of disappointment, as the _fly-fis 
ing ground at each river is only sufficient f 
two or three rods at the outside. So far as r 
experience goes it is useless at present fishi 
with a fly, except at the river mouths. O 
own river, the Waihaha, is sluggish, and alwa 
holds a few fish, but, in my opinion, is uselc 
to the fly-fisher; they can be caught, as 
proved, but. until the end of the season p< 
sibly, the river fish cannot compare with the 
of the lake either for condition, or spo 
Underneath the waterfuall already mentioned 
a large basin; but, although it holds both ra 
bow and brown trout, on the. two occasions 
gave it a trial it was most disappointing. 
My previous experience oi rainbows has be 
that the rainbow coloring is very mark 
whereas in Lake Taupo on a well conditior 
fish the coloring can barely be detected. T 
applies particularly to the hen fish, and tl 
might be salmon so far as coloring goes. 1 
cock fish even in first class condition alw; 
shows more or less color on its gills. Fur: 
the seven weeks of our camp at Waihaha, fi 
ing turn about, and seldom for more than th 
hours each a day, never more than four, 
joint bag has been 275 fish, weighing 2, 
pounds, heaviest 18 pounds, smallest 6 poun 
all on fly. Best catch one day, twenty-six fi 
240 pounds. The history of a good many la 
in the neighborhood has been that they be 
with a flourish of trumpets like Taupo this y t 
but gradually fall off in condition and s 
Lake Taupo is a much larger sheet of wai 
and while the average size is hardly likely 
remain as good I think good fishing is assu 
for some years. It is said that it is. not m 
than six years since rainbows were introdu 
there, which seems almost incredible to mi 
John Bushby in The Field.
