ON EACH DECOY Jeffersan City, Mo. U. S. A. 
to ten pounds, have been caught. The 
Kinnikinnic well bears investigation. 
The Willow River flows into the St. 
Croix above the Hudson and is not 
a very deep stream, and in a dry sea- 
son belongs to the rivulet class. Some 
rather good fishing is to be had on 
it, though it may he said that there is 
one angler for every foot of it, as it 
is in too close contact with civiliza- 
tion. 
It is strange that the trout streams 
are fished with persistence. We saw 
very few anglers after small-mouths, 
and for days had the waters absolutely 
to ourselves! 
(To Be Continued.) 
TEAL ON THE WINGS 
OF THE WIND 
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 400) 
the small target are increased. The 
teal have light plumage and the regu- 
lar heavy duck loads used on the larger 
fowl on the bay are not needed to bring 
them down. 
Fine sport may be had with the teal 
with a 16 or 20-gauge gun in the wild 
rice. These small gauge guns are light 
in weight and can be handled, brought 
to the shoulder and aligned with the 
target more quickly than the heavier 
12-gauges. A second saved in firing 
the shot is often of considerable im- 
portance when jumping the little teal 
in the thick, tall rushes — often taller 
than the sportsman standing in the 
boat — where the duck is in view for 
only a moment as it springs straight 
up from the water close at hand and 
where, a moment later, it is often hid- 
den by the reed-tops as it speeds off 
on a horizontal course. 
More skill is required with the 20- 
gauge than with the 12-gauge, since 
the number of pellets are of course less 
in the smaller shell and the killing cir- 
cle or spread of shot accordingly re- 
duced. The 16-gauge may be bored 
slightly open, but the real effectiveness 
of the 20-gauge lies in its throwing I 
.its small quantity of shot in a dense, 
even pattern. The 20-gauge should be 
bored full choke, or one barrel improved 
modified or three-quarter choke. Cyl- 
inder bore in the 20-gauge makes for 
an uneven, patchy spread of shot that 
will often only wound a duck or per- 
mit it to fly through the pattern. 
In the hands of a good shot the 20- 
gauge will give good account of itself 
on the fast little teal. The reduction 
in the spread and quantity of shot is 
to a very large degree compensated 
for by the fact that the little gun can 
be handled more quickly. 
As I have observed, however, the 
smaller gauge guns should be confined 
to the good marksman, since in the 
hands of a poor shot many birds shot 
at will be missed entirely or only 
wounded. The beginner should keep to 
the 12-gauge both from point of econ- 
omy and humanity.
