TARP0N FISHING Big j..
SPORT ON THE ISTHMUS
Associated Pressl

PANAMA, July 21-1arpon fishing
has become one of the chief sports of
the isthmus. 1t has been discovered
that many large fish come up the
Chagres river from salt water to feed
on the small fish that come through
the spillway from Gatun Lake.
On several occasions recently tar
pom from three to four feet long have
been captured just below the end of
the spillway.
The Chagres river, just below the
spillway and down to the Caribbean
is very deep and has very little cur
rent. Gatun lake is the breeding
ground for many fish and these flow
over the spillway dam with the huge
volume of water when the gates are
opened.
