However, the use of a surface Plug asa

Sometimes it beehooves > fisherman or
sportsman not to be too honest about his
ability or luck. as per article by LOUIS
Rhead OF Brooklyn In Rod and Gun news
| Of May Is.
About a year ago I had an article az.
swering one OF Mr.. Rhead's regarding nsh-
ing in the Ashekan Dam and also streams
of our county. At the same time explain.
ing what our association was doing FOR
the fishermen of our county, and that
q great many New York city ny casters
were reaplng the benent. and asked him
| to become a member at the small sum
| of 81 per year with the National Sportsman
thrown in. Did We get tho sixteen bt:''
mot as yet"
am not questioning his veraci.y. for
know we have the trout, for IL was
| only last week q party caught q tea
pound steel head trout, and you can't beat
| that in this state. What ! Am going
| to do Is to have our Game Warden com
municste with Mr.. Rhead. for he has dug
his own grave and now let him keep
| out Of IL.
He either had thlrty-two. pounds o:
| trout which he brought back TO New York
city or he didn't, and II am not mis-
| taken the law says: "Ons person shal!
not have more than ten pounds at any
| one time"
| Now, Chin Hackie," "Tamsrack.. bal.
sam and all the rest of the bunch. please
give me your verdict on this case
