Demand for Fishing Bait.

Owing to the lack of time or indo-
lence of anglers, a considerable num-
Der of persons living at English seaside
resorts within easy distance of great
cities earn very decent subsistence
wholly from supplying fishing bait At
certain places not far from London the
fishing bait man will often receive as
many as a dozen kilograms in one day
telling HIM 10 be ready with the neces-
sary bait. And here let it be said that
ometimes-through storms and the
awkward state of the tides-there is a
sort of bait famine, q fact which the as
tute bait man employs to advantage by
establishing with his rivals corner in
bait
The bait men are generally in league
on all occasions. Suppose that an ang-
ling competition is afoot and that a
great many anglers are expected, there
is a most unaccountable dearth of bait
gets as much bait as will last him a
couple of hours or so, that is to say, his
can is flied with sand, with, at the top,
few entieing-looking lugworms. JUST
at the time when the chances are that
the bait Will give out. and just at the
time also when the fish have come ION
the feed" there strolls along the pier
to the expectant anglers bait seller
who has, even so late. managed to get
a fresh supply, portions of which he is
ready 10 sell at extravagant prices, and
for which there is eager competition.
The writer has seen lugworms sold at
sixpence each. In some cases whole
families live entirely out Of the bait
trade
