CHESAPEAKE BEACH

Despite the low water and the
proneness of the finny tribe to prefer
the deep off the oyster bars, there
was some instances of good catches of
hardheads and trout off the long pier.

column that he hopes within the next
day or two to be able to have q good
supply of Virginia licenses to bA dis
tributed to Washington anglers. AS
soon as these licenses are, procured
the anglers will be notified where to
obtain them in this city.
The bass season, in Virginia, opened
last Friday, June Is. The only re-
ports received SO far, state that the
Monocacy river is full of small
mouth bass, and many good catches
have been taken from that stream.
The National Military Sport Shop
has offered a SIS rod or reel to the
angler who catches the largest trout
during the season. The only re-
striction placed upon the offer is that
the fish must be caught with rod and
reel or with a hand line, and must
be weighed in at the shop at 742 9th
street.
