All Fish Have to Feed. and the Question

All Fish Have to Feed, and the Question
to Solve Is, What Do They Eat?
If there is anything a fisherman likes to
do, it is to get q mess Of fish where others
have failed to get bite, and no stories are
more frequently told than those of big
baskets filed at lakes OF ponds known to
be alive with fish, hut in which the fish
were never before known to bite. There
are lots of ponds in which fish can be seen,
but not taken. In some lakes fish may be
taken in the spring only, or in midsum-
mer, giving rise to the belief that they do
not feed at other times. In places where
trolling spoons alone are used very often
big catches are made with flies of bass and
pickerel, and in places where only natural
baits-worms, frogs, minnows-are popu-
lar, artificial lures are often successful.
1t Is related Of Jefferson county village
that no one ever used flies for bass fishing
till boy who knew about Adirondack
trout fishing came along with seven
ounce fly rod, with other tackle to match
"That toothpick catch a fsh2' said the
native fishermen. why, half pound
bass would smash 1t all to pieoes.''
A couple Of them were curious to know
how the thing worked and volunteered to
row the boat. They got to big, dark pool
under cedar tree on ledge Of rocks, and
a grizzly king and yellow sallie dropped
on to the water like natural flies. What
followed was convincing to the natives.
A black bass of over two pounds in weight
grabbed the grizzly king and was hooked
He put up good fight, but at last rolled
up on his side and was dipped up with the
landing net. The natives didn't say yery
much, but they did whole lot of think
ing. Light wood rods soon became ponn.
lar in that region, and bigger messss Of
fish were the rule.-New York Sun.
