WITH ROD AND GUN
ANGLERS’ AFFAIRS The liberation of fry and regulations prohibiting spoon-fishing in oertaiin areas were questions discussed at a meeting of the council of the Auckland Acclimatisation Society presided over by Mr. J. E. Elliott last evening. It was reported that out of an estimated supply of 200,000 fry only 85,000 had been available for liberation. Wastage in consignments from the South Island, and losses of young fish at Kakahi were stated to be responsible. Attention was drawn to a clause in the Gazette prohibiting “spoon”fishing in the Waipa River. The Otorohanga Rod and Gun Club wrote protesting against the restriction. No record could be found to show how the regulation had come to be gazetted and it was decided to reply stating that the question would have every consideration and that an endeavour would be made to effect ii:s early repeal.
