Salmon and trout fishing with the fly-red is another recreation that arouses the enthusiasm of a new school of Spanish sports- men. Last
year the Heir Apparent of Spain, the Prince' of the Asturias, had his first lesson salmon fishing in the River Pas, near Santander, and the capture of a fine fish has given him zest for fly-fishing. Twenty years ago the only fishermen by the streams were peasants, who often used nets. To-day fly-fishing clubs are being formed in many of the towns $11 the Biscayan coast, and stringent rules of sport ure observed. At Caugas de Onis, a little town in Asturias, there is a fishing association of nearly a hundred members.
Hitherto shooting has been a far more popular sport than fish- ing. The King of Spain is an excellent shot with the rifle, as those who have accompanied him on big-game shooting expeditions testify. Bears, wolves, wild boars, ibox, and deer still rove among the Cantabrian Range, and King' Alfonso camps out when he visits this fine alpine district of As- turias.
