1. Licenses to fish for trout in all the waters within the said district will be issued under the hand of the secretary of the Grey District Acclimatisation Society (hereinafter called “the society”), and for every such license a fee of twenty shillings will be charged: Provided that it shall not be obligatory upon the society to issue a license. The secretary may issue half-season licenses after the nineteenth day of December in each year, at a fee of twelve shillings and sixpence each, and seven-day licenses at a fee of two shillings and sixpence each. The charge for licenses for women, and for boys under the age of sixteen years or attending school, shall be five shillings each for the season during which such licenses are issued.

2. Every such license shall entitle the person named therein to fish for trout in any of the said waters from the first day of October in each year to the thirtieth day of April in the following year inclusive; but no such license shall confer any right of entry upon the land of any person without his consent.

3. No person shall fish for, take, catch, or kill, or have in his possession, or attempt to fish for, take, catch, or kill, in any manner whatever, any Salmonidæ or trout, except during the above-mentioned period: Provided always that this regulation shall not apply to fish caught by the officers of the said society for purposes of acclimatisation, or by officers of the Marine Department for the same purposes.

4. Every such license shall entitle the person named therein to fish with one rod and line only, and with the following baits: Natural or artificial fly, natural or artificial minnow, silveries, bullies, grasshoppers, spiders, caterpillars, creepers, and worms.

5. No person shall use any other bait, or any method, device, or contrivance of any sort or kind whatever, for the purpose of fishing for, taking, catching, or killing trout, except with a rod and line, and a landing-net or gaff for fish taken with rod and line.

6. Except as aforesaid, no person shall fish with or use any net (other than a net for whitebait-fishing) 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 :

Provided that nothing herein contained shall prevent the placing of any net other than a stake-net in or across the mouth of the Grey River, or at any place in the said river below a straight line drawn across the said river opposite Tainui Street, in the Town of Greymouth, for the purpose of taking indigenous fish only, nor render any person liable to any penalty for so doing, or for taking indigenous fish by such means.

7. No cross-line fishing, stroke-hauling, or any other unsportsmanlike device shall be used for the purpose of taking, catching, or killing trout; nor shall any of the baits above mentioned be used with any medicated or chemical preparation whatever, except small fish put up in formalin or other preservative.

8. No person shall fish for trout without a license; and every person fishing shall, on demand of any Ranger, constable, member of the society, or person producing 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 trout.
