NEW FISH FOUND
IN MASSACHUSETTS
Landlocked Smelt an Ad-
dition to Food Supply.

ONoTo LAKE Mass. Aug. 10.-George
Fl. Graham. a Fish and Game Commits
sioner OF this state. came here recently
and as result has opened new vein
Of angling. fishing for the landlocked
smet. Fishing with Fred Zegler within
fifteen minutes they took half dozen
fish six inches long. The Ash. Is not
only delightful to eat. but doubtless the
catching Of these little Ash will afford
fun to men. women and children.
The tackle consists Of a small hook
fne line and a one ounce slnker. The
fishing is done off the bottom. Garden
worms are used as lures. The smelt bite
lightly and the angler must be quick to
hook them. Some who have tried the
landlocked smelt like them better than
trout
The fish were introduced some years
ago, and 20 successful was the planting
that for four years the commission has
been shipping from this lake land
locked smell TO stock other lakes, besides
taking millions OF eggs.

BARNEGAT HAS BIG
RUN OF WEAKFISH
Yellow Fins Guide Vast Num-
bers of School Fish From
Florida.

FoRKED River. y. j.. Aug. l0.-A phe-
nomenal run OF weakfish, which COM
menced August 2 on flood tide is en-
gaging summer resorters from the vari-
GUS resorts around Barnegat Bay.
II Is estimated that 1000 boats, loaded
with anglers. were busy Saturday and
Sunday. All reported unusual catches
In point of size.
The tide runners apparently we're
hungry after their long trip from Flor
ida guiding and guarding vast schools
Of school fish,"
The yellow Ans. or tide runners
ranged IN to ten pounds weight. The
school Ash hit the scales at n pound
and a half. This Is the latest arrival
NJ weakfish ever known here and as
sures the best weak fishing for the re-
mainder Of the season.
Each flood tide brings in thousands Of
fish and the entry is likely to continue
for some days yet
Bluehsh may now be expected at any
moment. They have been held back in
their northward migration by the re-
fusal OF the EchOols of moss bunkers on
which they feed to advance in the cold
water Of the present backward season
Striped bass also continue plentiful.
Outside the inlet anglers and CONNER
cisl fishermen are capturing bonitas and
brokers' by the barrel.
Sntpe are beginning to arrive around
tho bay In big focks. making for good
cunning.
At the State game farm there are
about 1000 perfectly healthy young
English pheasants Matched by hens that
are to be released this coming autumn
to keep gunners busy.
Commissioner Ernest Napier considers
thia world record Matching. Not a
L'rd has been lost by disease, rodents
or hawks.
George Whitehead and Mr., Osgood
OF Ridgewood. y. j., stopping at the
Riverside House, hold the record for
ocean weakfish caught in the bay with
rod and reel. Taken out by Capt.
Charles Grant In his motor boat Sun
dav. they captured fifty-seven tide run
ners. OF which twelve weighed eight and
ten pounds each None of the others
weaks was less than six pounds each.
Some twenty-six pleasure boats which
