The opening day in this district will prehably , see more visitors than residents fish- ing the nearby waters of the Maitland River. This year the size limit on basil, formerly set at 11 inches, has been removed, and'. anglers may keep fish regardless of size, The limit of catch, however, remains un- changed at six per day, which, in line with the removal of the size minimum, means the first Six fish caught. Although the size limit on bass has been removed, that doesn't mean that the supply is so plenti- ful that there is no need to help sate a new orcip, Department of- ficials point out. Because' of the late spring, the bass will be late reaching and leaving •the • spawn- ing beds this year. Since the fish is so easily caught when guarding, its nest, the need for protection during the actual spawning period is greater than ever now, During the spawning period bass will strike at almost anything, and the only way to safeguard them is to stay away from the spawning beds altogether. Not Too Popular Here A favourite with fishermen from the cities, bass are not too popular with local residents in this dis- trict. And although they are pleti- tiful in the Maitland River, haunt- ing the deep holes and shallows alike, they are not too much dis- turbed by resident anglers. The prevalence' of a parasitic grub in the flesh of the fish has contrib- uted much to their -unpopularity locally.
