Fishing Newsletter Chronicles Fine Start to Manitoba Season
The 1956 fishing season opens badly, then improves as reports pour in from Pelican Lake Rock Lake and Turtle Mountains with strong walleye runs on Lake Manitoba and good pickerel on Winnipegosis River. Boating interest surges with Canadian outboard sales approaching 260 million dollars as leisure time grows and design advances draw more anglers. A McCreary contest awards a Langley DeLiar for a true fish tale about a pike and a frog evading a gull.
