FISHING FOR BIG-MOUTH BASS 



along and cook a couple of the fish on shore 

 to eat with the lunch you bring out. A big- 

 mouth fried an hour after leaving the water 

 is delicious eating. 



Even in July and later, the big-mouth will 

 rise to a frog in the morning and evening, 

 and a light wind over the water is often ad- 

 vantageous. But all signs fail occasionally, 

 and I have caught some fine, lusty bass in 

 mid-August, at the noon hour, casting with a 

 frog in water unruffled by a single dimple of 

 the breeze.
