1t was so designed by the trainers
of the new law. They figure that the
man with the line would never do
very serious damage to the fish
streams, and that the special restric-
lions need only be put around seine
ing, fish-traps, gigging and the other
modes of taking fish by the whole
sale.
The law is especially drastic against
dyndmiting fish and against putting
anything in any lake or stream that
could be calculated to injure or to
poison the fish.
No license il required to fish in
this state, and for the ordinary fish
erman who pursues the finny tribe
for sport there are practically no re-
strictions.
Atlanta's local fishing thus far
has been confined to East Lake, at
the country club, where several fine
bass have already been taken, most
with an artificial spinner.
