SOME FISH AND SOME FISHING 



Is full of life and full of zest; 

 In the south he is of great size 

 And to a trolling bait will rise. 



The Giant Bass is no Hebrew, 

 But is oft confounded with the Jew. 

 One can always tell him by his scales, 

 And Jewfish have round fins and tails. 

 They both do grow to a great size 

 The fins and tails will put you wise. 



In the wide ocean called Pacific, 



The Salmon tribe is so prolific 



That they provide the State with mammon 



That would be lost without the Salmon. 



Tyee, Sockeye, Humpback, and Coho 



Are of the family of Salmo. 



The Sharks of many kinds do swarm 

 In the blue water that is so warm. 

 They swim along and show their fins, 

 Looking for trouble and full of sins; 

 They are the scavengers of the sea 

 And deserve no mercy from you or me.
