submerged logs for pickerel, and out farther for 

 bass, moving alongshore until we come to grassy 

 shallows and try with a large-size grasshopper 

 for both pickerel and bass, casting first near shore, 

 gradually farther out to where the bass lie, at 

 dotted line. From the corner bend below C we 

 again change our lure to a green frog and try for 

 the pike lying below the lily-pads. Going round 

 the other bend, we cast toward D for pickerel 

 and farther out to the bass, at dotted line. 



Walking around, crossing the outlet, at E, we 

 there take a stand. Changing our green frog to 

 a brown one, we cast to F, quite near shore, and 

 as far out to G as we can. Walking down along- 

 shore from F we change our lure again to a min- 

 now. If our previous effort with a minnow at the 

 inlet, where we commenced, was effective in getting 

 fish, we choose the same size minnow; if not, we 

 try one smaller in size, a little two-inch darter, 

 an imitation of a silverside. Casting to the dotted 

 line, we proceed alongshore, till we come again 

 to the inlet. Should it happen that weather and 

 season conditions are right, and we get a fair bag 

 of fish, we content ourselves with not making 

 changes in the lures. If otherwise, we change from
