1t seems that the melon is a dainty

favor as a bait among German anglers.
The method of procedure is as follows:
A hole is cut at the end farthest from

a part of the fruit followed out, a num-
Der of hooks attached to line thread
ed through the stem are buried in the
flesh of the melon, which is then sent
adrift, being buoyed on the surface by

a line. by which it can be drawn
ashore when the bobbing of the bait
shows that fish has been hooked.
