Several years ago. says the Toledo
Blade, the Grand and Lewistov7n reser.
voirs, feeders of the Miami and Fri G
canals, We're the best bass fishing grounds
in Ohio. One dark night some miscreant
turned loose family of German CART
and now all is changed at the Grand
reservoir and fishing at Lewistown re-
servoir is not near so good.
These carp grew and multiplied and
the story spoYtsmen tell of their in
crease is melancholy in the extreme.
The carp drive ont the bass, and while
carp may be caught by the hundreds
bass are scarce.
Many heroic methods have been sug-
gested to remedy matters and the
privilege of seining for carp has been
granted at Lewistown reservoir.
Now comes the latest method from a
large wholesale fish dealer at Cleveland.
1t is said he proposes, after securing
the exclusive privilege to catch carp at
Lswistown reservoir, to rid the wa
ters of all stumps and distractions,
and then, by use of n large seine. catch
all these cannibal fish. The fish will be
shipped to cities where carp have a
ready sale. Should tine gentleman be
successful, the sportsmen of this 10 cal.
ity will hail him as a benefactor of
mankind.

Fishing on the bank at the Bulkhead,
Lewistown reservoir is at present the
best known in years. The water is
very high and has beer so all spring
and summer. The gate at the outlet
is open 16 inches and the water as it
rushes through this opening causes a
heavy current. Fish naturally follow
current and consequently anglers
have no trouble in making fine
catches.
