Bass Season Now Open.

With the opening of the bass sea
son Thursday, the restrictions OH
the last game fish are removed, and
now fishermen are free to haul in
anything from suckers to the large
and small mouthed black bass, pro
vided they are not under size.
The bass season is open from
June IS until March /, and the size
and bag limit is ten each day, not
less than ten inches long. Black
bass are also known as Oswego,
green, yellow, moss. pink eye, large
mouth and small mouth bass.
The reason for the opening of the
black bass season fifteen days after
the pickerel and pike season is that
these fish spawn later than any 9TH
er game fish. They come from their
winter quarters in schools during
April, and work along the shore.
where in May they pair off and find
suitable place for spawning bed
which is usually in slough or low
muddy place for the large mouthed
bass and in gravel bar for the
small mouthed bass.
Both the male and female bass
watch jealousy over the beds upon
which the spawn have been depos-
tied. One swims over the spawning
eggs flaming its tail continuously,
while the other swims around it in
a circle. They fight everything that
comes near the bed, and remain for
about ten days after the young are
hatched, which is about June 5.
Plckerel aud pike and other large
hsh are the natural enemies of the
young bass, and if the old ones are
taken away when the former are
still small, they are destroyed. 1t
requires no skill ON the part of the
angler to catch bass when they are
still protecting their young for
they strike for everything that
comes near the bed

failure TO appreciate the value OF little
