Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Inquiry Into the Legislation, Control, and Improvement of the Salmon and Sea Fisheries of Ireland This brôchure might perhaps better have been termed an ´Essay´ than an ´Inquiry,´ because the subjects, both of the Salmon and Sea Fisheries, are incompletely treated; and it may be hoped they will receive further investigation under abler hands. An acknowledgment must be made of much assistance in the compilation, obtained from reviews, pamphlets, and other sources. This has enabled me to correct my own earlier views on several questions relating to River Fisheries, and to learn how carefully opinions should be formed on any matter of difficulty, requiring knowledge and judgment. Some apology is due for not having, in the following pages, always treated a serious subject in a serious manner. Two plain questions arise, in considering the present state of the Irish Fisheries. Why should the Law give a new or additional property in Salmon-fishing to any man? Why should not Government aid, which is received by the Sea Fisheries of Scotland, be also extended to those of Ireland? With reference to the latter question, it is of course to be wished that Irish fishermen were independent of assistance; but whatever is likely to prove of service to them, we may hope will be accorded. With respect to the first, I may state, that since leaving England I have had much insight into the practical operation of the Law, - during a residence of nine years on the river Slaney, - as well as in the course of experience formed on the bench, - and also as secretary to a Fishery Protection Society, after the passing of the Act of 1842, and as a conservator for the Wexford districts under the recent Act. Not being an angler, or connected with fisheries, I may claim to be exempt from advocating any particular interest.
