REGULATIONS.

1. LICENSES to fish for trout and perch in all waters within
   that district or part of the North Island known as "the
   Auckland Acclimatisation District," which includes the
   Provincial District of Auckland, with the exception of the
   Counties of Tauranga, Whakatane, and Cook, may be issued
   under the hand of the Secretary of the Auckland Accli-

   to issue a license.

3. The Secretary of the said society may issue day licenses
   to bonâ fide travellers and strangers not resident within the
   district aforesaid, on their introduction to him by any two
   members of the said society, and on payment of a fee of two
   shillings and sixpence 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.

4. Any holder of a license may fish with one rod and line
   for trout and perch, and may use a landing-net or gaff to

   the above-named waters, from the first day of October in
   any one year to the thirty-first day of March in the year fol-
   lowing, both inclusive.

   a close season for all such fish: Provided always that this
   regulation shall not apply to fish caught by the officers of the
   said society for purposes of acclimatisation.

7. No person shall put, throw, or place, or allow to be put,
   thrown, or placed, into any river or stream, or at the mouth
   or entrance of any such river or stream, any dynamite or
   other explosive substance, or any sawdust or sawmill refuse,
   or anything of any kind or description whatever poisonous,
   deleterious, or noxious to fish.

8. 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
   to the water from whence it was taken.

9. No person shall fish for trout or perch without a
   license, and every person fishing shall, on demand of any
   ranger, constable, member of the said society, or person pro-
   ducing a license, produce and show to such ranger, member,
   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 or perch.

10. Every trout not exceeding nine inches in length from
    nose to tip of tail, taken or caught by any person, shall
    immediately be returned alive into the water from which
    the same is taken.

11. No person shall take, catch, or kill any perch under
    six inches in length, nor shall perch be taken, caught, or
    killed at all, or had in possession of any person, between the
    fourth day of April and the thirtieth day of November in
    any year.

12. No cross-line fishing, stroke-hauling, or any other
    unsportsmanlike device shall be used for the purpose of
    taking, catching, or killing trout or perch ; nor shall any of
    the above-mentioned baits be used with any medicated or
    chemical preparation whatever.

13. Except as aforesaid, no person shall fish with or use
    any net or other engine, instrument, or device for taking
    fish in any river or stream within the district aforesaid, or at
    the mouth or entrance of any such river or stream.

14. 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.

15. No person shall buy, sell, or expose or offer for sale, or
    shall fish for the purpose of obtaining for sale, any salmon,
    trout, or perch, or any part thereof.

16. The penalty for the breach of any of these regulations
    shall not be less than forty shillings or more than fifty
    pounds.

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