The man who has been used to salmon fishing in Ireland or Set land, however, or has played dili-

If he retains his carly love for rod and line, he will be mich more inclined to experiment with bigger game such as that which Colonel Macpherson likes to pursue. Fer the benefit of those who have never sought fighting fish, we might ex- plain that angling for shark or tunny is ong of the most exciting sports that exist, requiring considerable skill and great physical strength.! In fact, when Colonel Macpherson said that, in hunting big game fish one had to be as fit as though one were going to play two games of rugger and one of soccer in an after noon, he was barely exaggerating, as those who bave had any experi- ence with fighting fish will know Provided one has a suitable craft and the correct tackle and knows morcover, the hunts of these fish, there is nothing to prevent anyone from adopting this most exhilarat- ing of sports.
