Fishermen Hail With
Delight Breaking of Ice

Fishermen will hail with delight
the report that Messalonskee lake or
Snow pond as it Is known to some,
Is practically clear of ice. For sew
eral days the ice has been out from
Oakland up as far as Blake's Island,
but Friday the ice cleared for a dis
lance of several miles up the lake.
The Belgrade stream is practically
free from ice and at almost any hour
the rest Of the ice will probably leave
the pond. Two fishermen were re-
ported yesterday trying their luck
near the big pool just below the
Cedar Crest Camps and many local
fishermen are getting their tackle
ready for the first fishing of the sea-
son. Although not very many fish
are caught in Snow pond in the
course Of the year the catches are
generally worth taking home and
bra gginb about to the neighbors.
