Excerpt from Montana Wild Life, Vol. 3: March, 1931 Churchill, thus affording to a torrent loving species like the Arctic grayling a ready means of communication. Professor John Macoun is quoted as saying before the Senate committee in 1888 that he had caught Back's gray ling in the tributaries Of Peace river, in the Rocky Mountains. It is both an Arctic and a mountain fish, and de lights in clear water. It is very game some, and takes all kinds of bait. When it took the bait it would jump clear out Of the water, many times a couple of feet or so, and of course, the bean tiful colors (more beautiful than those of the mackerel even), glistening in the sun, made the anglers thrill with excitement. They are a white-fleshed fish, and not anything like as hard as the trout. It seems, therefore, from reading the reports, that the Arctic grayling, Back's grayling, or Bluefish, is very abundant in many streams of the north draining into the Arctic ocean, and that it will continue in abundance for a long time, owing to the scarcity of population, in accessibility by sportsmen and fisher men, and lack of transportation facil ities.
