FISH STORY.

The anglers are fishing for bass, -.
They're are paying big price for bait
They are traveling-the La and the lass
From the early morn till late;
With bait buckets and lines galore,
They go on every train,
And when they return, to be sure,
They sing with merry strain;
ave caught them down at the Dyke
The grandest sport we've seen;
In fact, we never saw the like
Of bass-they came so clean"
But there's a man Who fishes net
And waits for suckers TO come.
He sells his fsh-you can bet
And these anglers bring them home.
They tell Won the biggest lies
About the fish they caught,
And what tell you is no surprise
The whole blamed string is bought.
