biting frame Of mind.
Our catch was fairly small
because of the high winds which
whipped the river into a mass Of
foam. but we did bring back 81
hardhead, and one each Of trout,
perch and kingfish.
Those which did bite bit we'll and
strong, although the heads of some of
them were covered with mud, showing
that they had been burrowing in the
bottom for food. For bait we used
shrimp and peeler crab. and after
paying the murderous price Of 80 cents
a dozen for peelers found that shrimp
were by far the better bait.
