L. s. Bishop had monster fish on
exhibition in front OF his grocery
store on Main street Monday afternoon.
1t was buffalo fish and measured AZ
inches from the end of the nose to the
tip of the tail. Its "waist measure"
was 25 inches and 1t weighed 81 pounds.
The fish was captured in deep hole
in a creek leading from Lake Amelia.
1t had evidently swan up the creek
during high water and could not get
back. Clint Perkinson and George
Grundman landed the monster. They
had to shoot it. Eight shots were
fired with a shot gun, the last one
taking effect in the back part of the
head and breaking the spinal column.
The other shots were ineffective, most
of the shot glancing off the heavy,
thick scales. Mr.. Bishop had Johh-
son take photograph of the monster
of the deep.
