BLACK BASS RPE “NO KEENTO NE —.DATLETO MA Hungrier than Usual This Season. HOW TO “PLAY” HIM. Other Useful Information for . Those Who Indulge in Angling. For nearly a week now the rare @ouls, to whom the fight of a plug ugly bass is better than being elected President of the United States, have enjoyed their annual blessed Joy sea- fon, The long, cold spring and early June have made the fish hungry. Hungry fish, no matter what their kind, make good fishing. But if the hungry fish be a bass, good sport is certain also. The bass is a scrapper, hungry or not, once he takes hold, @ther to satisfy his appetite or to show his anger against the intrusion of fly or bait disguised into the philo- sophic calm of his hiding place under the lily pads or open pool or shelving rock shadow. The tactics of the bass are called “sulky.” The bull terrier, who fights according to exactly the same book of rules, is worshipped the world) over as the embodiment of all that is plucky. His is not the gallant panio ‘ of the brook trout, with his deft, sl- lent snatch at the bait and his cun- ning, frantic struggle to escape, The bass is a battler, A boss of any size, landed, is nearer dead than any other fish taken out of water. He doesnot eurrender until tho strength is gone from him. ‘There's Dick Molloy, who has a ummer bungalow at Rockland Lake because he can catch six or eight bass a season there, and who is more @Micacious than a traffic cop keep-/| fog Broadway clear, because he talks about them for the rest of the year. Dick is, to look at him, simply an earnest, industrious servant of the people. Now, if you tow Dick he was a second Napoleon, he'd go home and tell his wife ho always thought you were a fried of his, hut-— Yet ff he heard you had compared him to a black bass he would invite you to spend Sunday with him. Greater honor Dick could bestow on no man, for does it not imply the privilege of fishing from a boat rowed by Mrs. Molloy? And let Dick tell it, the truly nriceless wife is one who can bandle boat after a fish ts hooked ‘so that the beast never gets a chance to tangle himself In the Iily stems.

Thirty-fve years ago J. A, Hoen- shall made this prediction: “The black bass is eminently an Ameri- can fish, and has been said to be representative in his characteristices. He has the faculty of « rting him- welf and making himself at home placed. He is hooked, Ho arrowy rush and vigor of the trout, the untiring and bold leap of the aalmon, while he has a system of fighting tactics peculiarly his own. “He will rise to the artificial fly as readily us the salmon or the brook trout under the same conditions, and will take the live minnow or other live balt under any and all circum- stances favorable to the taking of any other fish “1 consider him, inch for inch and pound for pound, the gamest fish that swims. The royal salmon and the lordly trout must yteld the palm to a black bass of equal weight. That he will eventually become the feading game fish of America is my xpressed opinion and firm be- o i ia) ef MOW TO “PLAY” THE BLACK @A88 IN CASE YOU HOOK HIM, Henshall tells how to “play” the base in these words When a bass is hooked he must be killed on the rod; the rod must stand the brunt of the contest; the more pliable and springy the rod, the Jens likelihood of its breaking, for a Stiff rod is more pliable than a flex- ible one. Give the basa more line only when he taken It; make a fight for him by the spring of the rod, and do not hesitate to turn the butt toward him to keep him away from pS NIB A a Why Suffer from Indigestion, Gastritis, Catarrh of the Stomach mentite reel by \} MAN-A-GEA WATER f The Natara) Mingrul Spring Water with and between sour mens MBedue’ ones: eta halt allon hotties from fe ts to battle with you.
