FISHING IN THE DISTRICT.

A very interesting week or two was. spent recently by Mr B. C. Bennett, and two other keen anglers in exploring the district streams between Hawera and Opunake and round towardsPungarehu. The fishermen pitched a. camp by one of the streams nearPihama, and from there made expeditions to try out the neighbouringstreams.. They gradually worked their-' way north. They found that the streams, south of Opunake were _mu.-h better stocked than north, and had altogether excellent sport and a good trip. Tfieexperience they gamed otYthe ashingis valuable, for it shows how well thework of the Acclimatisation Society is. bearing fruit, and makes a strong inducement for fishermen from otherparts to come to South Taranaki.
