Why is it, there's such fishin',
And such dandy strings Of fish,
OF trout, or bass pickerel.
Or most anything you wish;
Such gamey ones TO tempt you,
And enough to make you sure
That you'll never fail to land 'em
In vacation literature
And when you've fished with all your Skill
And every kind of bait,
You're told you came a week too soon,
Or else week too late
