FISHING OUTLOOK GOOD IN LOCAL RIVERS THIS YEAR
Anglers who were out for the opening of the season yesterday reported that prospects are slightly better than for last season in local rivers. The Department is again asking all anglers, successful and otherwise, to keep a diary of their fishing, good or bad, on the Angler’s Diary ...sheets obtainable from the Rod and Gun Club, license agents and the Ranger. The Club endorses the Department’s request realising that if the district is to expect larger liberations of trout fry and fingerlings, the angling records must be sent in to substantiate local claims. Angling diaries give this district very real publicity at the Department’s headquarters in Wellington. There are no new Fishing Regulations this season, although the old license forms have given place to a new type that embodies all the various types of licenses on the one sheet, and requires the time at which the license was taken out to be shown, thus closing another loop-hole to the angler who considers a license unnecesary.
