His Excellency the Governor-General in Council.

IN pursuance of the powers and authorities vested in him by the Fisheries Act, 1908, and its amendments, His Excellency the Governor-General of the Dominion of New Zealand, acting by and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council of the said Dominion, doth hereby make the following regulations for all that part of the Dominion known as the Westland Acclimatization District and the waters thereof, as the same is defined in the First Schedule hereof; and doth hereby declare that these regulations shall, as from the date of the publication hereof in the New Zealand Gazette, supersede all other regulations for the said district, and such regulations are hereby revoked.

  1. LICENSES to fish for trout, perch, or other acclimatized fish in all waters within the said district may be issued under the hand of the Secretary of the Westland Acclimatization Society, or any one authorized by the said Secretary in that behalf, and such license shall entitle the person named therein to fish in the said acclimatization district from the first day of October in any one year to the thirtieth day of April in the year following, subject to the said Acts, and any regulations made thereunder, and to these regulations: Provided that the Secretary may refuse to issue a license to any person who, within the previous two years, has been convicted of any breach of the provisions of any Act relating to fishing for trout, perch, or other acclimatized fish, or of any regulations made thereunder.

No fly shall have more than one hook, and no person shall use more than one lead or sinker, and such lead or sinker shall be tied above all flies, minnow, or natural bait used: Provided that the restrictions imposed by this regulation shall not apply to single-hooked flies of size 10 (old numbers) or smaller.
