Hen Merriam never would saw Ius,
what the black bass weighed" said 1

the hammer weighed FIVE pounds.
~ was Sodus bay bass, and when
Hen talked about wanting to go Out
and get It or one something like III
sire some one told him the bass ran
20 large In Sodus that fishermen who
wanted to be on the safe side took q
big hammer along with them to knock
EN- In the head. So the hammer Hen
Merriam took with him weighed Al.
most a. much as the cedar boat he
Yowed.
Hen, being . railroad conductor
seemed to expect the bass to be right
on schedule time In taking his hook
after he had thrown in, and 80 when
10 minutes had passed and no bass
mad come along he decided It was 90
Tar behind time that he guessed Il
would have to be abandoned, and he
was pulling up to go in when the bass
came along and got the hook.
Hen started right In to make M
lost time and yanked that bass In
hand over hand. When the fish's head
came In sight and within reach Hen
grabbed his hammer, and being a little
mad yet over the bass being behind
time he brought the hammer down

But Sodus bay bass are watchful

hammer kept right on coming down.

Hay! he yelled. Somebody bet
ter make extra good time over here or
tberell be trouble on this line!'
And that was no joke, for Hen had
hardly yelled that much when his boat
sank and he was laundering in the
water trying to keep from following 1t.
He had the hammer in one hand and
held fast to his line with the other.
Mark Sullivan was taking out bass in
boat near by. and he pulled for Hen
right away.
Don't stop for signals! yelled
Hen. Pull her wide open, of this bass
will get away
Mark got there just In time to tug
Hen into his boat, and Hen was no
sooner in than he began hauling away
on his bass. which was still on the
hook. When he got ii alongside the
boat he handed the hammer to Mark,
and while Hen held the bass with the
top of its head out of the water Mark
used the sledge on It.
He tumbled the bass skull in at
the first clip. They lifted the fish into
the boat and came ashore. Nobody
has ever heard how much It weighed,
for Hen Merriam didn't say and |
guess Mark Sullivan never knew.
When Hen told about the bass he Just
said 1t was so big it sank the boat.
But II find the man who told
me to take that hammer along as part
Of my fishing tackle said he, he'll
know how much I weigh!
Some say the boat cost Hen $40"
