Biggest Fish Story of the week,
and true one at that, came to
us via the telephone Wednesday
afternoon when M. M. Patrick, of
Lakewood, called TO report that
he and a friend, AL Hevsy, of
Cleveland, had just landed a
Northern Pike measuring 33 inch
es in length and weighing 8 IA
pounds. The two men are va
cationing this week at John Balm
sens Bass Haven, down Danbury
way. Mr.. Patrick said it took both
men a half hour to finally land
the catch and that one oar was
broken in the fracas as a result
of having to club the big fellow
in order to bring him in. The
fish was brought to the locker
plant here to be put in the freez-
er until the men return to their
homes when they will enter the
length and weight of their catch
in a contest sponsored by the
Cleveland Press to find the Zig
gest fish caught along the shore
of Lake Erie.
