Licenses may also be issued to boys attending school or under the age of sixteen, or to women, at a reduced fee of ss. for each license so issued; provided that it shall be lawful for the said General Manager, or his appointee, in any case where application is made for a license on or after the Ist February in any year, to issue a license to any man for the sum of 12s. 6d., but so that such license shall extend only from the time of granting the same until the termination of the then trout-fishing season. No license shall confer any right of entry upon the land of any person without his consent. The General Manager, or his appointee, may issue to any one applying for the same a monthly license on payment of a fee of 12s. 6d. for each month’s fishing, a weekly license on payment of a fee of 7s. 6d. for each week’s fishing, or a day license on payment of a fee of 2s. 6d. for each day’s fishing. 3.

No set rod or line shall be used for taking trout in any of the waters aforesaid. The use of the shell-fish koura, worms, the creeper, and the huhu or matai grub as baits shall be a breach of the regulations. 5.

No person shall cast or throw into any stream or waters, or shall allow to flow into or place near the bank or margin of any stream or waters, any sawdust or sawmill refuse, lime, sheep-dip, flax-mill refuse, or any other matter or liquid that is noxious, poisonous, or injurious to fish ; provided that nothing herein contained shall extend to prohibit the depositing in such stream of debris from any mining claim.

11. No person shall take, fish for, catch, or kill, in any manner whatever, or have in his possession, any salmon, salmon-parr, or smolts, or the ova, young, or fry of any salmon in any stage whatever ; and any of the above-named taken by accident or otherwise shall immediately be returned alive into the water from which the same is taken.

12. No person shall fish for trout without a license ; and every person fishing shall, on the demand of any Ranger, constable, officer of the Department of Tourist and Health Resorts, or of any person producing a license, give his true name and place of residence, and, on the like demand, produce and show to such Ranger, officer, constable, or person his license, and the contents of his creel or bag, and the bait used by him for taking, catching, or killing such trout.

Except as aforesaid, no person shall fish with or use any net, or any instrument, or device, or means for taking Salmonidce or trout in any lake, river, or stream within the district aforesaid, or at the mouth or entrance of any such river or stream; provided that nothing contained in this clause shall apply to the Under-Secretary of the Department of Internal Affairs, or to any person authorized in writing by the said Under-Secretary to net fish on behalf of the Department. 16. Nothing herein contained, or contained in any license issued under these regulations, shall be deemed to authorize any person to fish for or take Salmonidce or trout from the Wairoa Stream between the waterfalls and Lake Tarawera.

17. No person shall buy, sell, or expose or offer for sale, or shall fish for the purpose of obtaining for sale, any trout, or any part thereof; provided always that it shall be lawful for any person to buy and sell fresh trout and smoked trout taken and branded by or under the direction of the Department of Internal Affairs. 18. The penalty for the breach of any of these regulations shall not be less than £1 or more them £SO.
