rock put in an appearance he will
be ready to 60 after them with
shrimp from the first crack.
The amount Of bait used
and the difficulty Of obtaining
1t makes cumming q bit more
expensive than ordinary fish,
Ing, but It's worth the differ
ence.
A few live shrimp tossed from an
anchored boat bring rock up the
tide, and they seize on the shrimp
attached to your hook. From then
on It's merry battle until the
striper Is landed. Not only do you
generally catch larger fish by this
method, but you also get more fight
from them as there Is no heavy
sinker attached to your line to take
MI the battle from the fish.
Rock aren't the only thing caught
by this method. Often you1l find
q good yellow-fin trout on your
hook and even hardhead will come
up the chum line.

The first hardhead generally are
caught between the 1st and the
10th Of May, and Woodburn sees no
reason why 1t should be different
this year. Basing his predictions on
what net fishermen in the lower bay
have been doing, Harry says that
hardhead this year should be good
sized ones. Those in the nets all
are in prime condition.
The first catches usually
are made in the Honga River
across the bay from Solomons
and up in the Patuxent River.
Two weeks or so of that and the
fish start biting in the deeper water
OF the bay proper. Rock fishing also
should be better than ever this
year, Woodburn predicts. Those in
the nets are larger and heavier,
just as they have been for the past
several seasons since the passage of
the Maryland law prohibiting purse
netting. That was q big step for
ward In conservation along with
the law that prohibits keeping rock
larger than is pounds.
Suggested Change In Laws.
That 15-pound limit was made be-
cause fish Of that size carry q tre-
mendous amount Of spawn. There
has been some talk-not particu-
larly at Solomons but by sportsmen
in all sections of the State-about
amending that law to permit sport
fishermen to keep large rock but to
require commercial fishermen to
to throw them back. Generally 4
fish Of that size is q real trophy for
rod and reel anglers, and it breaks
their hearts to have to release them.
Since bluefish have been 70
few for the last several sea-
sons the rock almost has
taken its place ~ the Chesa-
peake's Nos l game fish.
At Solomons they are going to get
started earlier this season on CATCH
ing them by cumming with shrimp.
For several years that has been =
favorite method in the upper bay
on the Eastern Shore. but 1t re-
ceived its flrst real trial at Solomons
last season.
How 70 Do It
Not . whole lot was done about
1t at Solomons last season except
experiment, but now they know the
holes and how to do It, 20 some 1ine

has been assured and in which the
program readily adapts itself to meet
ing the need of more adequate diets

indication that local welfare officials
