A small bore Parker or your favorite American double name would probably be most ideal for a gun to carry with a fishing rod. He also mentions using his waterfowl gun as well though so perhaps Cleveland used his 8 gauges on rail or snipe occasionally haha. I take it to mean he would carry a sub gauge while fishing if a opportunity arose but also would take his waterfowling gun and pursue shore birds.
I think its interesting he mentions even 100+yrs ago people would complain specifically about a public figure hunting.
