to angle for brook trout, perch, chub. cat
fish and sunfish. Trout fishermen found
the mountain streams In Pennsylvania In
swollen condition from the recent heavy
rains and melting snow on the mountains,
and as a result their catches were rather
lean.
Many prominent Philadelphia anglers
journeyed TO their favorite trout streams
in the mountain sections, where they VIII
remain several days Very few trout were
creeled on opening day, the best catches
being taken from waters in private pre-
serves.
The beautiful weather of the weekend
brought out the tldewater fishermen In
force. and the nearby creeks and their
small tributaries were well lined with
these fishermen angling for chub and
suckers, and any other fish that might
be biting.
Record crowds crossed over the Della
ware River to New Jersey, many OF whom
returned homewards Sunday night with
good strings of catfish, sunflsh and yell
low perch taken from the many tidewater
creeks and meadow streams within easy
reach of Camden The trout streams In
the southern New Jersey counties were
alive with bait fishermen, and many large
rainbow trout were caught by these ang-
lers.
Salt water fishermen are considerably
excited over the report that the fore
runners of large schools OF croakers nave
appeared in the Delaware Bay, and as the
Ramey and much-prized seatrout follow
closely after the croakers, these anglers
are getting their tackle in shape Tor an
early start baywards.
Many members of this clan went shore
wards last Sunday. and spent that day
angling in the bays and thoroughfares
along the Jersey coast They didn't have
their trip for nothing, either. as many
of them returned in the evening with good
strings of blackfish or tautog and
founders. The coming weekend VIII
bring out an even larger number OF
fishermen, and from then on the hshing
season will be on in earnest
Rockfish are commencing to run In the
Maurice River, but are still in hiding at
Fortescue A few days OF seasonable
weather, however, will mean an exodus
of fishermen for these famous fishing
runs.
