Finest Trout Fiohing.

Perhaps the finest trout fishing in
the world is to be had right here in
the Saratoga valley. Now that the
high water in the streams has fubsid-
ed it is possible for an angler to go
out and catch 20 pounds, the limit of
the law for one day, in an hour, or at
least two hours. And he can do that
on one of our small streams, and then
not fish I'VE half a mile of the stream.
The river is full of both brook and
rainbow trout, and the small streams
seem to be alive with them-bright
gamey fellows that make your reel
sing and your pole bend almost dou-
BILE. And while fishing parties go
out from this place daily, returning
with well filled baskets, the number
Of trout in these streams does not
seem to decrease. They are a con
siderable asset i'll the food supply of
the valley, for it is safe to say, that
no matter how many are caught, none
of them are allowed to go to waste.
But the large trout in the river are
either gone or have become so wary
that they will not take a fly any
more. The largest trout now taken
from the river rarely exceed three
pounds in weight. This is evidenced
by the fact that the Saratoga Fish
Club has reduced the size of its an
nual prize to "A three-pounder. That
would not have been done ten years
ago. Plenty of trout were taken out
of the river here then that weighed
five pounds and a considerable num-
Der that weighed eight and nine
pounds and a few that weighed
twelve pounds and over, were taken
in the early days of the trout fishing
in this stream. Those are DAYS to
talk about they will never return
again. But they really are not to be
regretted. The large trout, while
good eating, do not begin to compare
i'll flavor with those running from one
to two pounds in weight, while many
prefer a trout Of half a pound to one
exceeding that weight. So what we
have lost in weight we make up IN
numbers.
We wish to reiterate the statement
made at the beginning of this edito
rial that perhaps the best trout fishing
in the world is to be had right here
in the Saratoga Valley.

for the present well-organized con-

"0ld Cheyenne"

"Old Cheyenne" is right up and a
coming, you bet, when it comes to
anything of the rough and tumble
sort that will attract people to her
Great Frontier Day celebration, but
she would not stand for that lyncbing
bee. She sat down on that, and sat
down hard, and we are mighty glad
she did. II shows that while she is
ready for almost anything that may
come down the pike there are things
which she gracefully hoists on the toe
of her boot and tells TO "hike". Now
if she will taboo the steer roping con
tests and cut out the stake race W
will lift our tile to her in the most
GRACEFUL manner we have at our com
mand.
