A Day of Daze 



When Dr. Henshall said, "Inch for inch 

 and pound for pound, there is no gamier 

 fish in American waters than the small- 

 mouthed black bass/' the tribute was well 

 deserved. Dr. Henshall is always right in 

 whatever he asserts or writes about in his 

 charming way. 



The Humble Angler, for years an ardent 

 admirer and follower of his teachings, has 

 become as enthusiastic as his master. Most 

 unexpectedly the opportunity came enabling 

 him to prove emphatically all his friend and 

 preceptor claimed concerning the clever 

 gameness of the black bass. 



In the vastness of the Maine forests lies 

 a wondrous lake. Hidden from view amid 

 the wealth of pine and fir that borders it 

 about, one must be familiar with the un- 

 marked pathways and short-cuts in this 

 section of woodland to locate it at all. So 

 secluded and so far from the public high- 

 way it has remained unknown to the army of 

 anglers who are content to seek the more 

 accessible and better known resorts.
