4 Fishcraft 



the trout brook or the bass lake lies 

 within a short distance, and a day's 

 angling may be had with little effort 

 and very light expense, it naturally 

 follows, even though the lure of the 

 sea and surf be irresistible to that 

 portion of the Waltonian fraternity 

 possessing the financial ability to 

 gratify the desire, the multitude must 

 be content in taking the fishes of the 

 inland waters. 



Natural preference for fresh water 

 fishing is a deciding factor in many 

 cases where anglers have tried both 

 the sea fishing and the sport of casting 

 for game fishes of the interior. There 

 is a charm in the infinite variety of 

 scenery, the activity, of the pastime, 

 whether it be along some cool, rippling 

 brook, or in a light-running fishing 

 boat on the deep blue waters of the 

 lake, that appeals to countless thou- 

 sands of enthusiastic fishemen and 

 the fair devotees of the sport as well, 

 for it is logical that the gentle sex 

 should find the gentle art of angling 

 a suitable recreation for leisure hours 

 and healthful outings.
