FISHING ON THE ILLINOIS
Haul of 100000 Pounds Of Carp
Said to Have Been Made.

Haul of 100000 Pounds Of Carp
Said to Have Been Made.
Peoria Star: Rivermen are talking
of an immense haul of fish which was
made by q crew under Henry Gatlin
on the night of Wednesday last, near
MossvilIe. and which Appropriated
200, 900 pounds, At the shipping price
of four cents a pound the value of this
haul is $4,000 and shows the impor-
lance of the fisheries of the Illinois
river as business proposition. All OF
the fish are carp and they have not yet
got them out of the seine. They will
be shipped at once direct to New York
city, where they are served in the lead
ing hotels and restaurants as a prime
delicacy. This is probably the last
haul that will be made this season, as
the river is slowly freezing over
Professional fishermen who have
studied the habits of the carp say that
at this time of the year they huddle to-
gether in great schools near the shore
This particular school was discovered
on Wednesday by the Rogers brothers,
who made a haul of 10000 pounds.
Gatlin got next to the discovery, and
going up in the night with long seine
and a full crew made the haul which
gathered in the rest of the school.
They could not take out the fish with
dip nets.
This is one of the largest hauls
made in recent years, if not in the en-
tire history of this part of the river.
