of a bait-laden hook,' using worms,
minnows, frogs, grasshoppers and even,
bacon rind before a hungry trout.
4 Most attractive feature of May 1 In
Ontario is that it signalises the ape
proach of the game fish period. Many
fishermen previously have "rehearsed"
on puckers, smelt and the peeeh roses,
but, once the speckled trout season
opens, the pickerel fishing follows on
May 15 and it isn't long until bass and
maskinonge may be taken.

Long Awaited
Trout Season
Opens Next Week
More than 100,000 resident and non-
resident anglers are expected to open
the speckled trout season in Ontario
on May 1. Tliey will use fishing tackle
valued in the millions, of dollars. As
an example, one Toronto sportsman
has more than $5,000 invested in fly-
rods, lines and an assortment of more
than 5,000 flies and other parapher-
nalia used by crack anglers,
Yet, in the best Izaak Walton tra-
dition, some freckled-faced youngster
armed only with an alder pole, string
line and nut-laden hook probably will
walk off with the principal prize in
one of the angling contests which are
always a feature of "opening day."
This year, following a record mild
winter, in Southern Ontario at least,
streams are expected to be at mid-
season levels. This means that trout
may he taken on streamer or wet flies
and even, if the weather is very warm,
on dry flies. In the extreme north,
however, there will still be ice on
the lakes and river edges, and wet
flies and bait will be preferred.
Salvelinus fontinalis, to give the
speckled trout his technical name, has
been sought by anglers for hundreds
of years. He may weigh, in extreme
cases, as much as seven or eight
pounds from Lake Nipigon or the
Nipigon River, although it is claimed
that larger trout may be found in
more isolated parts of the Province,
In any event, the world's record trout
came from the Nipigon River. It
weighed 14% pounds and was caught
in 1915 by the late Dr. J. W, Cook of
Port Arthur.
Generally, in Southern Ontario, a
speckled trout weighing three pounds
or thereabouts will take the prizes.
Most of the fish, stream-caught, may
he just over the seven-inch limit.
Fishing for square tails, is, or is not,
a very involved procedure. The fly
fishermen devote their angling entirely
to small tufts of feathers or hair con-
cealing the hook. The dry fly floats on
the surface of the water; the wet fly
is submerged and usually resembles
a live minnow. But speckled trout may
also be taken on small plugs and spin-
ners, either cast from a bait rod or
trolled behind a boat.
Spinning tackle, a relatively new
method on this continent, is now very
popular. With the spinning rod and
special reel and lines, an angler finds
it quite easy to toss a bait 100 feet or
more.
Then, of course, there is still-fishing
—"worm dunking" as it may be scorn-
