Sonny Boy Fishing Contest 
Prize Announcement 
Tom Sample, Jr., of Haines City, Florida, Takes 
First Prize in the Southern Division for 
Large Mouth Black Bass 
T is generally conceded that the 
| large mouth bass of the south is 
sluggish in temperament. Nature 
has endowed him with generous pro- 
portions, and with a genial climate and 
warm lagoons, there seems to be but 
little reason that he should bestir him- 
self overmuch. 
But he is a lusty fellow, withal, and 
where he lacks in speed he surely gains 
in strength. 
Those who angle under southern skies 
are loud in their praises of this fish, 
who is ever willing to strike an artificial 
lure and uphold the honor of the good 
name Black Bass. 
The following letter from the winner 
of the first prize for southern large 
mouth bass, will give the reader a good 
idea of Florida fresh water angling: 
MY PRIZE CATCH 
One afternoon last 
summer one of my 
friends, Pete by 
name, came around 
where I was work- 
ing. He wanted me 
to go fishing with 
him after . office 
hours. I told him I 
would if he would 
find someone to row 
for us. He got Nor- 
man Kaesar, a 
vounger boy who had 
rowed for us before. 
So we went around 
to the Winchester 
store and stocked up 
on tackle. I picked 
out a Creek Chub 
Pikie to do duty for 
me. With our fish- 
ing tackle we board- 
ed our Ford and 
out two 
of town to 
tine This 
where fish 
be scarce 
ought we 
r, and de- 
y our luck 












nt to a 
e who lived 

near the lake to borrow one of his 
boats. He gave us permission to use 
either one of his boats. One was a good 
cypress boat, while the other a light 
boat made of pine and very tippy. Of 
course it was our luck to have the good 
one gone. We had to use a small board 
for a paddle. 
We put our outfit in the boat and 
each stepped lightly in and took our 
seats. I was using a Winchester steel 
rod, kingfisher line, Creek Chub min- 
now, and a steel pivot-bearing reel. 
We had gone about one hundred 
yards when I threw out a long cast 
(expecting it to backlash as some of 
my casts do) that dropped the minnow 
next to the sawgrass. 
It had no sooner touched the water 
when something had my minnow, and

It will identify you.
