hopping on the squid will bang the
rod against the rail of the boat
most joyously.
The larger fish are likely to be
found in water of the stated depth
or greater, anywhere outside of the
bar all along the coast-not neces-
sarily near inlets, as they are now
beginning to school up preparatory
to migrating, no n knows where.
A twenty-four pound strain line is
light enough and a good sized reel
is necessary as the fight is a rough
one"
Fish Tales
Some fine striped bass have been
taken from the bridge at Highlands
this season. A few days ago S. Volt
ger, one of the crack anglers of that
locality, landed one Weighing is
pounds, IL ounces. During the seN-
son this fisherman has landed fifty
or more at his favorite spot.
A 20 pound tuna was hooked and
boated off Beach Haven last Mon
day. Harry s. Drinker, Jr.. was the
lucky angler.
Tuna in great numbers and of
large size have been off the Jersey
coast during the past week. Last
Sunday Senator Brown and party
ran into them and had great sport.
Owing to their tackle being too light
for the big ones, none were boated,
but much broken tackle testified to
the gameness of the fish.
Channel Bass
Channel bass-also known as red
drum and redish-are surf running
fish found almost exclusively in
northern waters but occasionally in
the inlets and channels. June to
September is the best season.
Weights range from six to thirty
pounds. with occasional fish more
than fifty pounds. Chief method of
catching is casting into the surf the
best places being beaches with an
outer bar in front, making two lines
of surf, the water between being
known as a "slue". Use sinkers of
pyramid shape TO hold bottom in
surf. About two feet above it attach
2 or 3 foot leader with good double
action swivel. Best hooks SO
O'Shaughnessy or No. 1 Virginia.
Shedder crab is the best bait gener-
ally but sometimes bloodworm, sand
worm, manhaden, herring or calico
crab prove excellent.
The foregoing is taken from
Fishing Guide of 1928" and the
practical information should be well
come to those who are still cooking
forward to the taking of their first
channel bass.
