| An Immense White Perch 
DEAR FOREST AND STREAM: 
AM sending you a photo of a white 
perch, weighing 3 pounds 10 ounces, 
length 18 inches. Twelve years ago a 
game warden named Allan David, who 
is now deceased, put fourteen barrels 
of these fish in Prospect Pond. A few 
of the sport followers paid for them 
and the carting up to the lake from 
the depot. During the last two or threo 
years we have been catching them. I 

am an ardent reader of your magazine 
and several of my fellow fishermen told 
me to write to you but I thought it 
might not interest you. 
When I caught this fellow, I was 
fishing with the ordinary tip-up traps 
on a dark day, using both chubs and 
shiners for bait. I did fairly well and 
about twenty minutes to five I got the 
white perch. I surely felt proud, I will 
tell you. Since then a few about a
