Show Traveling Trout. No company of anglers can long be together without having a discussion regarding the sea trout and what manner man-ner of fish he really is. According to the latest scientific view a sea trout is merely a trout which has been to sea and come back again. A proportion propor-tion of the trout in certain districts have, in fact, adopted a way of life similar to that of the salmon, driven to It possibly by need of food, or perchance per-chance obeying some ancient instinct of the race. Why some trout should migrate and others stay In fresh water wa-ter Is a mystery deeper than the wholesale migration of the salmon, and It is not exactly helped by the existence, and flourishing, of a kind of half-way type of fish which Is known as the estuarine, or slob trout, and which lives In brackish water, growing sometimes to a great size. |
