four and she not one, caught
a five FOUNDER and the gamy
qualities of this trout came we'll
into view. At the first he was
two or three feet into the air,
and this three or four times,
then he plunged forty or fifty
feet straight down, went under
the boat, around its PROV
couple of times and then after
six or eight minutes became so
tired that ] lifted bim in by
hand, not having a landing net
or gaff. This was our largest
and contrary to usual luck my
side of the house caught it.
But to make up for that streak
of i'll luck, DIR. Janette anoth-
er day took six and l only one.
On this day, another lady in the
boat with us hitched to a large
one of six or eight pounds
weight, we guessed, and not
being used to handling a rod
and reel allowed the trout to
get a dead line" and he broke
off the hook, No. + spoon, but
made one or two tremendous
leaps into the air before that,
and one after being loose, that
was fully six feet high, probably
with the spoon in his mouth.
OF fresh water fish that have
taken, only the small nouthed
black bass of the east can COM
pare with gamy qualities of
those trout.
MIR. Woods told of another
species in the lake that kept in
deeper water than those we
caught on the hooks and said
they came up nights when the
red fish were running, and if ]
got a chance to go spearing !
might get some of them. Such
a chance came, and one was
taken besides some ling and
suckers. This trout was round

Trout Fishing in the Selkirks.

A4ou1 leAluS Ill Lut OelklrkS,
They promised us some fine
trouting. and we found it.
There was only one drawback,
the flavorofthem not beingquite
equal to that of the eastern
brook trout, but it is rich. We
took no less than five distinct
species of trouts, two in Trout
Lake and three out of the
creeks. Our first day on Trout
Lake, trolling was with Charles
Woods. i'll his elegant boat, as
ardent fisher as "Dr. Janette"
and l are, to places where we
could find the tinny beauties.
For All hour we had rowed
along under the dark woods of
the southwest shore. with not
a touch at either of the two
trolls, when sudden jerk and
as sudden a little scream from
the woman in the rear end of
the boat and the cry live got
one!' caused all attention to
be centered upon the result.
In due time the long line was
all pulled up. and a pretty trout
of pound and half skilfully
lifted into the boat. 1t was a
beauty. Its head and back
were a steel blue, its sides of
si1very brightness, and the belly
white. BY my zoology, l iden-
titled it as the Kamloops Steel
head. Soon my own turn came,
OH a steel rod and reel, of one
twice as large. which at the
first made fine fight, but soon
swan so rapidly toward the
boat that l thought it lost, but
soon found my mistake and
had him in. Not more then
forty feet of my line was out
before another was hooked,
weighing also two pounds and
a half. the whole catch of that
afternoon being five, for "Dr.
!anette" two, and three for me.
