. Frank Forester's fish and fishing of the United States and British provinces of North America [microform]. Fishes; Fishing; Poissons; Pêche sportive. »Al, MONID;^^ â¢1 frt'xh running wator, can ruiHo, in ihn space of a f w wooks or months, !in indi'Gnit! nuinbor of young fiish, of any of thcHo variotii^s, which, (luring tho first woek or t'n days, can be removed to any distance that can bo roachi-d in that tiinsiâand, in th«so dayH of stjam volocity, what distance cannot bo reachod ?âin any cask, jar, or othor voss 1, capablo of containinther th(!se streams of ours here, to tho southward of Maine, which, within a century or two, teemed with Salmon, but in which one is now never seen, might not be colonized and restocked with the delicious fish. There is no plausible reason why the pinks which should be trans- po;ted to the upper Hudson, and should there remain till they become smolts, should not return as grilse to the scenes of their childhood. ior do I see any good reason why they should not cimtinuo to breed, and to frequent any river into which they .should be so introduced. Tho cause of their desertion of these rivers is inexplicable. It has been attributed to steamboats, but that is ideal; ^a* tho Tay, the Tweed, and the Clyde, and half-a-dozen other English and Scottish rivers, which still abound in Salmon, are harassed by more .steam- boats, hourly, than are the Kennebeck and Penobscot now, or than were the Hudson and Connecticut at the time when the Salmon for- sook them, daily. »â »' !!.i' .â ., â â mm.
