Extract

The Grand Cascapedia is a noted salmon river of Quebec Province, and has a course of about eighty miles across Gaspé before it falls into the Bay of Chaleurs, south of the Gulf of St Lawrence. The Grand Cascapedia Club, composed of seven members, now fish the forty miles of the river which used to be reserved for the Governors-General of Canada, and, although they limit both the daily catch and the season's catch of each member, a very ample return results in the short angling season of about two months.
