IN pursuance of the powers and authorities vested in him
by “The Salmon and Trout Act, 1867,” His Excellency
the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand doth hereby
make the following regulations for the District of Wellington:—

  1. Licenses to fish for trout in the Hutt, Waiwetu,
    and Wainuiomata Rivers, in the Provincial District of Wel-
    ington, will be issued under the hand of the Secretary of
    the Wellington Acclimatisation Society, at Wellington; and
    for every such license a fee of twenty shillings will be
    charged: Provided it shall not be obligatory upon the said
    Secretary to issue a license.

  2. The Secretary of the said acclimatisation society may
    issue day licenses to bonâ fide travellers and strangers not
    resident within the Wellington Acclimatisation District, on
    their introduction to him by any two members of the said
    society, and on payment of a fee of two shillings and six-
    pence for each day’s fishing: Provided that this payment
    may be remitted if the applicant be a member of or hold a
    valid license from any other society in New Zealand which
    grants the like privilege.

  3. Any holder of a license may fish with rod and line for
    trout, and may use a landing-net or gaff to secure any trout
    caught with such rod and line, in the above-named rivers,
    between the hours of five a.m. and ten p.m., from the first
    day of October, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-four,
    to the thirty-first day of March, one thousand eight hundred
    and eighty-five, both inclusive.

  4. No license shall authorise any person other than the
    person named therein to fish, and that with artificial fly or
    minnow only.

  5. Any person fishing either without a license, or with any
    other bait than as aforesaid, or who shall, on demand of any
    person holding and showing a license, or on the demand of
    any ranger, police officer, or constable, fail to produce and
    show to such person, ranger, police officer, or constable his
    license, or the contents of his creel, basket, or bag, or the
    bait used by him for taking fish, shall be liable to a penalty
    not exceeding twenty pounds.

  6. All trout not exceeding nine inches in length taken by
    any person fishing as aforesaid shall be immediately returned
    alive to the water; and any person convicted of infringing
    this regulation shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding
    twenty pounds.

  7. Except as aforesaid, no person shall fish or use any net
    or other engine, instrument, or device for taking fish in any
    river or stream within the District of Wellington, or at the
    mouth or entrance of any such river or stream; and all per-
    sons offending against this regulation shall be liable to a
    penalty not exceeding fifty pounds.

  8. For the purposes of these regulations the mouth of
    every such river or stream shall be deemed to include every
    outlet of the same and the sea-shore between such outlets,
    and shall extend over a radius of one-quarter of a mile
    from the point or line where the waters of such river or
    stream meet those of the sea or of any harbour at low water.

  9. Any person who puts, throws, or places, or allows to be
    put, thrown, or placed, into any river or stream in the said
    district, or at the mouth or entrance of any such river or
    stream, any dynamite or other explosive substance, or any
    matter or liquid deleterious to fish, shall be liable to a
    penalty not exceeding one hundred pounds.

  10. No person shall buy, sell, or expose or offer for sale, or
    shall fish for the purpose of obtaining for sale, any salmon or
    trout, or any part thereof; and any person infringing this
    regulation shall be liable to a penalty not exceeding fifty
    pounds.

  11. If any person shall be convicted of any offence against
    these regulations the license (if any) held by the offender
    shall thereupon become void.

  12. Nothing in these regulations shall be deemed to pre-
    vent any person or persons authorised in writing under the
    hand of the Secretary of the Wellington Acclimatisation
    Society from taking salmon or trout, or the spawn thereof,
    for acclimatisation purposes.

  13. These regulations shall come into force as from the
    date of the publication thereof in the New Zealand Gazette.

As witness the hand of His Excellency the Governor,
this twenty-fifth day of September, one thousand
eight hundred and eighty-four.
