Fishing Trips
The fishing trips that follow are for fishermen who are looking for information on the what and where possibilities of a fishing vacation. They deal with four fishing hot spots.
Wherever a man lives within the territorial limits of the U.S.A., beautiful country, game fish and excellent sporting facilities are available in many directions - toward the seacoasts, back in the forests, or up into the mountains. Now, is the time to take advantage of them.
MAINE FISHING TRIPS
Brook Trout, Lake Trout, Landlocked Salmon
A hard day's drive out of New York City and less than a third of that out of Boston brings the sportsman to a super highway starting in the southwest corner of Maine and continuing on to Portland and the Sebago Lake region. From here he drives on good roads: north to the Rangeley Lakes; northeast to the Belgrade and Kennebec Lakes, Moosehead, the Allagash River country; or east into Washington County. Besides squaretail (brook) trout, you can catch lake trout (togue), landlocked salmon, Atlantic salmon, brown trout, smallmouth bass, white and yellow perch.
ONTARIO FISHING TRIPS
Northern Pike, Muskellunge, Bass
Consider an inexpensive driving-fishing trip through a magnificent corner of Ontario, covering approximately 850 miles of fishing country available to the East and Midwest. The suggested route is north to the tip of the Bruce Peninsula, ferry across to Manitoulin Island - the largest fresh-water island in the world - north again from Little Current to Espanola, east to Lake Nipissing and a lay-over in Algonnquin Park, south through the French River country and the Rideau Lakes. Stop and fish whatever looks good to you - a couple of days each at Manitoulin, Algonquin Park, the French and Rideau should be considered.
TVA LAKES, TENNESSEE
Bass and Walleyes
A series of big lakes on the main streams and tributaries of the Tennessee River annually yield up some of the biggest fish taken out of fresh water. Formed by the multipurpose dams of the Tennessee Valley Authority and the Army Engineers, these impoundments have become famous among anglers as the "TVA lakes"; a long feeding season is the prime factor in the outsize growth of large and smallmouth bass, walleyes and panfish. Many good camps on all the major lakes plus excellent camping and boating facilities for camping fishermen are available.
FLORIDA FISHING TRIPS
Tarpon, Snook, Largemouth Bass
Generally considered a winter resort, Florida has two things to recommend it to the summer visitor: tourist rates are lower, and the fishing is better. From the tidal stretch of the St. Johns River all the way down to Key West, the fisherman will find the famous Florida largemouth bass at the peak of their performance, the coastal bays and inlets teeming with salt-water fish of several varieties. We suggest one session of a few days for bass on inland waters, another for tarpon, Snook, sea trout, and bonefish along either coast. Florida is wide-open to the summer fishing trade and is less crowded.

Fishing Tips
When you are fishing live bait in freshwater, use a Wide Gap hook, featuring a slightly reversed bend with an outpoint and turned-up ball eye, for penetrating quickly into membrane and cartilage.
