JUST FISH STORIES

Duck hunting, partridge hunt

popped up the past week to allay
the inclination of many fishermen
who love the fall for angling in
the lakes-even though they know
the big ones are ready to jump at
anything with color when it is
splashed alongside the bar or
weedbed. Another thing, some fell
lows would rather hit the pillow
during the cool mornings than go
out and SILVER in boat until old
Sol put bit Of heat between their
shoulder blades. A sixteen and a
half pound muskellunge put UP a
beautiful early morning fight last
week for ]. G. Mcfarland of Chi

that we saw some mighty fine

and the sports are landing EN-.
H. Swartz who is stopping at
the Waterman home on Catfish
shipped a twelve pound musky
this morning to Chicago. Accord
ing to Expressman White there
has up to this morning been
shipped from Eagle River during
the open season of 1924 total of
785 boxes of fish to outside points.
This number is not large, for it is
known that a greater percent of
the sportsmen who come to this
section do not fish their vacation
period away, but rather loaf and
visit" the time away and really
have a bully outing in the Big
Woods. The fish are far from
depleted, and he who wants his
daily catch has very little trouble
in getting it.
