INTRODUCTION TO EDITION OF 1886.
The yearly changes in the iMi laws df the States and Territories, and the ^■arill-
l)le oonditions, from kciihou to season, of tlio lishinn waters, create tlie necessity vt
an anniial rcvisicin and ri'issiit- of 'J"mk Anoi. Kits' (irioK )5o<ik.
In ihe jiresent edition (IHKd) nearly one fliousaiKl waters have been i.dded to those
described in bSM;!, niakint^ au atj^rejjdte of over oiKht thoUMaud desii^uated points
Avh(;re an^'linj,' can be h.id in Airerii-an waters.
In reiieatii:(4 the urj^ent call upon the an^^lers of the country to aid me in systeni-
izinn and Simplify inj{ the popular uanicH of ttshes, I v oiild further Htate that any
one desirous of assisting; in this good work, upon applying to nie by letter or otlier-
wise, will be furiiislu-d fice of chart^e witli preservative i)owder, through the use
of which Hpeciiuen lish for ideiitiliention and elassitication can be forwarded Ijy
mail. In this connection please note the following.
EKKATA.
The "herring" at Beaver Canon, Idaho (page 55), is the whitelisli, prol)al)Iy — C.
WiLLiAMsoNi. These tish art; gamy and rise with spirit to the artiticial tly.
The "bar lish " at Camden, A^k. (page 17), is the fresh water striped bass (KocfUS
ClIUVSOl'S. )
The "trout" of Hills I,ake, A"k. (page 17), is the large-mouth black bass. There
are no luitive brook trout (.Salvelinu.s fontinalis) in Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkan-
sas or Florida.
For "gaspergou " (page 72) read gasi)ergou. This flsh belongs ti> the same family
as the bulValo lisli.
The "jack-salmon " iu North Carolina and Tennessee (pages l.jii, 1!S() and IHl) is
the pike-perch. "Jack " nieaus "pike" uiuety-uiue times out of a hundred iu the
Woiith.
The "rock" at Asliepoo, y. c;. (page 17f<), is the saltwater striped bass (Uolci's
LINK.\TUH.
The "warmouth " at Millet, S. C. (page 17',t), is not the strawberry bass as indi-
cated iu the text. It is the C. (lULi)srs, a lish of the perch family, and about on ii
]iar Nvith the rock bass as to game ijualities.
The "red breast" at Salkehatchie, S. C. (nage 17'.t). is one of the "breams" so
called iu the South .
The "jackfisb " at Wiutield, Tenn. (page lH-2), is the pike (Esox LrciLs. )
The "grayling" of Grand Lake, N. S. (page 'J')), is probably the laud-locked sal-
mon.
The "mascalonge " of Lake Meganlic, P. (). (page ;t7), is ^Jie lake trout. This lake
IH on the International Railway, not the Intercolonial, as stated in the text,
"North Pond " at Htark water, N. II. (page 11'.') is iu>t open t) the public, being
leased by the Percy Summer Club. 'Wm. C. Hark:-.

INTBODUCTION TO EDITION OP 1885.
me fiiiuily
III lollatiuf? the material for thla Qulde Book, 17,827 special communication*, and
2.')iNi pagOH of Thk Amkrican Anolkb aud other accredited authorities, have been
ri( eivcd, cxuuiiiH'd and in journaliHtic parlance, "boiled dowu." The result 1-4
before thi' reader in tlie form of iMo.') ccntrt' pointu from whence over 7,(XX) angling
waters are more or less accessible; of these the foUowint^ data are given:
Htli — AccoiiimodationH and charges at
hotels, also those of private l.ioarding
houses.
'.(th— The favorite grounds, when known,
(it local anglers.
loth— Cost of fjuides, boats and bait.
11th— Where saltwater existH, the best
tide to fish in.
12th— Cost of permits when required.
1st.— How they are roiiclied.
'ind— Distance from nearest point by
railroad, or other public tninsportation
routes.
,'ird— The species of fish therein.
4th— The tishes that are most abund-
ant.
Tith— The best months for flshint,'.
(ith— Local baits used.
7th — Methods of local anglers.
In addition to the above I have given the quality of the fishing when authenti-
cated by my own experient-e or that of a responsible correspondent. In this
connection anglers should bear in mind that flsh are erratic in their humors; that
in the same water fishing may be good to-day and bad to-morrow; that wind,
weather, water and the feeding hours of iish are all essential factors in an angler'^s
success or failure. In waters of which I have no authentic information the reader
will find recorded, without comment, the names thereof, distance from station,
charges, species of flsh caught, etc.
The plan of comiulatiou which has been adopted, I believe to be the best form
for making tho Guide Book concise and of ready reference. It was a subject of
much thought and several methods were experimented upon, particularly that of
classification by waters, but the immense mass of material to be utilized and the
geographical range and area of the rivers and lakes, indicated that if this latter
form was used, the book would grow to the size of a ponderous encyclopedia)
rather than the pocket volume in which it now appears.
I have endeavored to make plain to the angling reader, resident in any section,
the poviilexity exi)erienced in the identification of a flsh imder its local name, vary-
ing in ditlereut localities. In a few instances I have been unable to do this and
have called for information from anglers familiar with the fishes and the waters
where peculiar names for the former are in use. This confusion exists more gen-
erally in the Southern States, particularly for the local names of the salt water flsh
ou the Atlantic coast belt from the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay to the southern
limil of the State of Georgia; also, for the fresh water flshes in the states of Vir-
uiuia, West Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky and -Tennessee. I urge
upon my brother anglers to assist me in simplifying the popular nomenclature
of the flshes of the country.
F(U' errors of omission I can only claim indulgence based on the scope, newness
and magnitude of the compilation. Doubtless many fruitful angling waters are
not named, owing to my ignorance of their existence, and to the impossibility of
covering the entire continent in the first issue of a work of this charactei', yet of
this I am assured, that nearly four thor.saud excellent fishing "grounds " are here-
in located, concerning which I have been entirely ignorant, despite an angling
experience of over a quarter of a century.
To those of our selfish brethren of the angle, if such there be, who are inclined
to grow surlily critical over the "giving away" of their favorite waters, I beg to
4>iote what old Walton's Pisc»#or said to Venator over two hundred years ago:
"Go your way presently; take my rod and do as I bid you, and I will sit down
aii'l mond my tacklint» till you return back." WM. C. HARRIS.

EXPLANATORY.
Tlie alphabetical hf>a<liii(,'n of thi- text indicate the Rtations of trannportation com-
paiiioH, for iiistance: Ou jumo 48 will be found Lennox (C. M. k St. P.) and by refer-
ring to tbe " Index nf TriinHportiition CornpanicH " on pp. a44-24i), the initial Ictten*
•('. M. k St. P," will be found to dcHinuate tbe Chicago. Milwaukee A: St. Paul Uail-
wiiy, and that Mr. A. V. H. Carpenter, Milwaukee, WiH., Ih the (teneral PasHenger
Aj-ent of Haid railway, to whom all letters of Inquiry an to trainn, coHt of traoRporta-
tion etc., via hiH road, Hhould be addresHed. Uvor two hundred trannportation
cnnipaniea are dsHi^natod in thin manner.
If the angler deHires to vinit, or acquire a knowledge of any particular water, and
doe8 not find it among tlie luadingf in the text iiuder the state captionn, by refer-
ring to the "Index to FiHhing Waters" on pages 209 to 243, he will see the page in-
dicated upon which the name, locality and fishing facilities of the water occur.
Owing to the largo number of correspondents (nearly 18,000) upon whom the
editor and compiler has been compelled to rely for much of the information con-
tained in the guide book, there, doubtless, occur many errors in the orthography
c>f the waters named herein. These, it has been found impracticable to entirely cor-
rect in the first edition, owing to the fact that over 2,000 of the waters named have
no place in the Gazetteers or on accredited maps. Such errors are aptly illustrated
by "Ephnores lake " or " EfTnor lake"; the first is found on page 136 as adjacent to
"Jessups Landing" station on the Adirondack railroad, and the second (J'^nor) at
Iladley station, page 138, on the same road. These two stations are but five miles
apart and Ephnorew 1. and Effnor 1. are dcmbtlcHs one and the same water. When
such inconsistencies occur, the angling reader will not be confused, as however va-
ried the spelling may be, the pronunciation is not affected.
Again; in numerous instances the terms lake, pond, stream, creek, run and brook
will be found interchangeable, but (•> prevent confusion we have given, at the risk
if repetition, the local nomenclature of the waters.
To avoid frequent use of the same terms we have employed the following :
Ahbrkviationk — B. b., black bass; br., brook; cr. creek; 1., lake; 1. m., large
mouth; m., mile; p., pond; p. d., per day; p. w., per w«ek; r., river; •. m., small
mouth; itr., atream; w., week.

SUMMAKY OP PISH LAWS.
[Revised to May 1, 1886.]
[The provisions of the fluh lawH of the iliffcront Statcw, Territories, aucl of the
Dominion of Canada prohibit, under heavj- penalties, thu killing of Halnion, tront,
black-bass, and other recognized game fish by any other nietht)d than by hook and
line. In states where exceptione to this general law obtiiiuH, a note is made of
the fact under the proper caption. The open seasons a.s given in the annexed sched-
ule refer exclusively to hook and line fishing, which in the State of New York is
defined as "a lino held in the hand," and as "lay-out" or "set lines" are prohibited
by statute in many of the states, a strict construction of the definition of hook and
line fishing is indicated by the New York law].
Alabama.— The ftsh laws of this state apply only to the Tennessee river in
which it is unlawful to use nets or poison.
Arkansas. —No protecting fish laws have been enacted in this state.
British Columbia, Province of— See Ontario and Quebec, the game and fish
laws of which were extended to British Columbia By order of the Governor in
Council on Sept. 15, 1879.
California.-- -The open season for all varieties of trout is from April 1st to Nov.
1st; salmon are protected only in the month tf September. " It Hhall not be law-
ful for any person to buy or sell or otter or exp^ise for sale within this state, any
kind of trout (except brook trout), less than eight inches in length. Every per-
son who in the State of <'nlifornia at any time, t.iles or catches any trout except
with hook and line, is guilty of a misdeni'^auor."
Colorado.— It is not lawful to kill troui "on any mop fish" with hook and
line except in the months of July, .\ugust, Septciuber, and October; fishing is pro-
hibited within '2('0 yards of "any flshway or artificial or natural obstruction in all

Connecticut.— The open seatons are:— Trout from .\pril 1 to July!; black-bass
can be caught in the running waters of the state in any montli df the year. There
IS no close season fur niascalonge, pike and pickerel. The waters jirotccted by
snecial enactments are numerous and as tliore has never l)een an olticial list of
tliem collated, it is ditficult to cull from the general laws an authentic schedule.
The following list however, will doubtless serve the purposes of the resident or
visiting angler; Hockanum river in East Hartford is protected from December 1 to
.\pril 1; Salmon river in Middlesex County can only be fished from tlio 1st of April

black bass less than ti inches in size if caught in Waramaug Lake in Litchfiebl
County must be returned to the water immediately: fish must not bo taken by any

Parkers (Or. & C.) — Vhe report from this station comes in the following f^arb;
■Tlie best way to catch trout is on a string, and the best bait is silver or green-
l)acks. The best way to ',,unt salmon is in the sjiriug of the year when they go up
on the hills to browse on fir buds, to take a good breech- loading shot gun and
bhnot them on the wing. I do not know iimch about catchin^r chubs, but the best
way to bait for suckers is to use a bottle of chain lightning. It will t^et them
ivcry time. Our local anglers have gone to Washington. D. C. The tallest ones
arc trying- to gel into Cleveland's cabinet, and tlu' common sizcil ones, will get
mtii iiuything they can. Their favorite grounds are around the Treasury Build-
iUK', as long as it lasts. In conclusion i will say that there is no good fishing around
