Hunting and Fishing In Norway.
:. .. fst. Louis Globe Democrat

tOt. DeinOcrdtJ
Norway was once an anglers para
disc, and good trout fishing is still to DO
had in its remoter districts. Salmon
formerly abounded in the fjords into
which rivers descend, but these
estuaries are now closely hetted, being
for the most part either leased by Brit
ish anglers or trapped by the natives.
The upper waters of the best rivers are
barred to salmon by impossible dams.
The last summer was unusually dry in
Scandinavia, and the sport was oor.
Game of one kind or another, however,
is generally to be found by the hunts
man. Wild beasts exist in the more
distant regions in considerable variety,
though not in great numbers. There
are plenty of ptarmigan, red grouse
and black grouse, and about the lakes
and fjords there are ducks, coots and
herons by the thousand.
