ROD AND STREAM
BY GEORGE HUBER.

to see which direction the school heads
when o sudden whim overtakes them.
They may easily be located because Of
their habit Of breaking water and be-
cause Of the gulls following them.
THEY usually are caught by trolling
baited lure behind a slowly
moving boat. We had the best results
with the June bug spinners and blood
worms. A number were caught, how
ever. on tandem spinner intended
for fishing In fresh water for black
bass but. all in all, the June bug was
found the best.
Because the rocks were feeding on
silversides we thought that they
should be fooled by No. 2 silver min
now "a bass and musky lure), but
this experiment was that much wasted
effort. A bloodworm spoils the action
Of the minnow. and they would not
bite on a baitless lure Other lures
which are no good are bucktails and
streamer fiys.
Il never hurts 10 try different bats,
though. Some day you will hit on one
that will prove TO be a real killer, but
up to now June bugs give best results.
SALTWATER tackle-18-pound line,
drag reel and a fairly strong
bamboo rods the usual tackle equip
ment, but this department found that
much more sport may be had with
light, fresh water tackle. We used q
whippy tubular steel rod 10-pound
line, gut bass leader and a single ac-
ton trout reel.
When even a one -pounder hits that
there is plenty fun in the oflng. That
rod bending all over the place is a
beautiful sight indeed, and is actually
as much fun as fishing for blues on
the heavier tackle
Not one fish was lost because of a
broken line, so it would seem that 10
pounds is plenty If it has a good
springy rod behind it. The only
trouble with using light tackle is that
some day a big fish is going to hit it
and then it will be just too bad.
About two ounces Of sinkers are
plenty. 1t Is advisable that one of
these be a keel sinker on the line Just
above the leader too keep from twist
ing. This is almost a necessity, as no
swivel yet invented will work all the
time under the pressure Of trolling.
Once in awhile a trout or a hard
head will take the trolled lure. and
you can be sure that it is a big one.
The smaller ones don't have the nerve
to take moving bait, and so only the
granddadies are taken by trolling.

last-named species are so rare that
they cannot be classed with those
regularly caught by the run-of-the-
mine angler. And while We are waiting
for the blues to hit the upper section
Of the bay we may practice on rocks.
Our fishing yesterday was done late
in the afternoon. The total catch was
66 rocks. These ran from about
pound to shade over pounds. That
is not the best catch that has been
made this season, but it does supply
an afternoons easy angling. BY all
means try it.
HERE'S the method usually en-
= = ployed TO bring in these striped
beauties. The boatman heads for
some place where they have been
caught recently or where they usually
are to be found. At Solomons the
best place is Cedar Point. Mostly,
they may be easily located from a dis
tance by the gulls which hover over
them. When you get near them you
can see the rocks breaking water all
around the boat as they leap In search
Of food. The gulls are there because
the small silversides, which correspond
to our minnows here on the Potomac,
seeking to escape the mouths of the
rocks leap out of the water only to be
taken by the gulls. It's a losing
proposition for them whichever way
they go.
You may just watch the action of
the gulls and tell when a rock will
break water. The gull will drift
around, then it will dip suddenly. A
moment after it has dipped rock will
break with a disappointed whipping
Of his tan. and as likely as not the gull
will fly away with a silverside for a
trophy which a moment before had
been the prey of the rock
Most Of our fish were caught yester-
day between the old, abandoned light
house and the bell buoy, but a goodly
number were caught out In deep
water and up in the bay. A good
boatman always will be on the watch
