' FISHING GUIDE

The P. E. lL Travel Bureau

|professional men as well

{has organized a volunteer Fish-

ing Guides Association and will supply visitors with guides. e guides are business and as men of all trades and occupa- tions, who have one thing common — a love for fishing. They are giving their services free as a gesture of hospitality towards those summer visitors, who, like themselves, believe one of the greatest joys of life is trout fishing.

Ordinarily the visitor never bet- ter fishing streams nor gets an inkling of the beauty spots which are hidden among the many tidal river:

Such rivers as the Brudenell, the Montague, Vernon River, Murray River, The Mil! and

e a Kildare ee are unsurpassed

for summer scenery and to the een sportsman provide good sea trout fishing. The Travel Bureau hopes that visiting anglers will take ad- vantage of the opportunity to obtain a fishing guide when

a coat a fishing trip. It

s hoped by this means that touriete will see more of the out-of-the-way places on the Is- land and meet some of our skil- led fishermen. All requests for | guides should be made to the travel bureau.

FAMILY PARTIES

Some of the tidal rivers, when the sea trout are running, lend themselves ideally to family parties. The men folk can fish and the children play on the beach or bathe and swim in safe and sheltered waters.
