one of them the nearett salmon planting to the net tile was three miles upstream to it is evident that the young salmon were moving downstream some are already in lake ontario for the dip netten and anglen are catching them although there is no season or creel limit on coho the department of lands and forests would appreciate it if dip netten and anglen would throw their fish back and give them a
