method Of catching is called Juggling. Th'
sportsmen go up the river a few miles, attacl
their lines to q corked jug, and follow it dowr
the stream, and those who have been success
full In taking the fish say it is rare and excit
ing sport when the jug begins to bob rapid!
about and the fish starts on a rapid run dow
the stream" This was published as a clipping
from some exchange, we suppose. as the Re

3 sport in the Missouri river.
